        # to_ber_appsequence
        # An application-specific sequence usually gets assigned
        # a tag that is meaningful to the particular protocol being used.
        # This is different from the universal sequence, which usually
        # gets a tag value of 16.
        # Now here's an interesting thing: We're adding the X.690
        # "application constructed" code at the top of the tag byte (0x60),
        # but some clients, notably ldapsearch, send "context-specific
        # constructed" (0xA0). The latter would appear to violate RFC-1777,
        # but what do I know? We may need to change this.
