I have added a draft implementation of a method to convert cn (i.e. Public name) to sn and givenName. [1]
Processing is currently very simplistic, but it should be sufficient to allow LDAP entries to be created, regardless of how many words are present in the Public name. Note that givenName is returned as an array (may be empty). This is because givenName is an optional attribute which may appear multiple times. It remains to be seen whether we want to create multiple attributes, or whether it is more appropriate to add at most one attribute containing all the givenName values. I suggest that others look at the tests [2] and add more to see if the behaviour is as desired. The draft status can then be removed for use in workbench code.
