In case the OID is not known, but the value is a printable string, show the value in the DN. Handling unknown OIDs in general is hard, as they can contain arbitrary data. However, a common case is that that the value is just a printable string, which can easily be represented in the DN. If you are interested, I would also be happy to implement a mechanism to register encoders for unknown OIDs.

Why is this important to the project (if not answered above):
I have OIDs that are not commonly used in the DN that map to printable strings
PS: If you are interested, I would also be happy to implement a mechanism to register encoders for unknown OIDs.
