You know a lot of the things people ask for are usually pretty
trivial. It's literally a bunch of typing. You just find a command that's
remotely the same, copy the java file, change the {read,write}WireFormat
methods and add a public method or whatever necessary to expose the
operation in the public API. Unfortunately TRANS2_GET_DFS_REFERRAL is
not one of those commands. Coupled with the fact that we don't here a
lot of complaints about it, it will probably not be implemented in the
near future.
