Representing changes from a group-centric point of view via LDIF seems
straightforward, but what about member-centrically ? e.g. how someone's
group memberships have changed.

What is the context here? Are we back to the subject id changing or is this to make it easier to query from a member point of view i.e. show me all the memberships for 'x' on a given date?

The latter, make it easier/possible to query changes from a member point of view.

 

If the actual change definitions  - the LDIF or whatever format we use - for a group can be queried using 'like' we could have an inefficient means of finding relevant changes which would allow us to compute a subject's memberships at a given point in time.

I agree: querying LDIF via SQL seems inefficient, perhaps even improper.
