Nobody registered Dovecot attributes with IANA, because IMHO it is quite implementor-specfic. Because of that, there cannot exist anything "official". How many quota rules do you have? Others may have plenty more, ... . But maybe, an Dovecot arc would help some people.
However, see http://www.openldap.org/doc/admin22/schema.html#Extending%20Schema
"To obtain a registered OID at no cost, apply for an OID under the Internet Assigned Numbers Authority (IANA) maintained Private Enterprise arc. Any private enterprise (organization) may request an OID to be assigned under this arc. Just fill out the IANA form at http://www.iana.org/cgi-bin/enterprise.pl and your official OID will be sent to you usually within a few days. Your base OID will be something like 1.3.6.1.4.1.X where X is an integer.
I've started off the process with IANA and I've started designing an auxiliary schema as Christian suggested. I just didn't want to be doing it unnecessarily, but it looks like that is the best solution.
Thanks for your help!
