Agreed. Both lists is fine for now.

We can have two flags:

    PR_WAI_IS_REGISTERED   0x0001
    PR_WAI_MAY_REGISTER   0x0002

PR_WAI_IS_REGISTERED is set when the viceID specified is assigned to
that entity and not to a group

PR_WAI_MAY_REGISTER is set when the ptserver determines that there is a
name that could be registered but which doesn't exist in the database
AND if such a request was received it could in fact be processed.  There
is no point encouraging the client to attempt to register
user@foo.bar.com if the configuration of the server would not permit it.

I think that adding the second name field is a good idea.
