H3: Overview
Overlays can be stacked, which means that more than one overlay
can be instantiated for each database, or for the frontend.
As a consequence, each overlay's function is called, if defined,
when overlay execution is invoked.

with respect to their definition in slapd.conf (5), or with respect
to their ordering in the config database, as documented in slapd-config (5).
