Currently, when you use the MARC21 008 plugin to edit field positions, the type
of material is always set to BKS, regardless of the actual material type of the
record.  This means that you always have to change the material type in the
fixed field editor to the appropriate value.

It would be nice if the type of material were determined by the current leader
value.

The "material type" in this context is determined by the Leader/06 and
Leader/07.  The "input conventions" heading near the bottom of
http://www.loc.gov/marc/bibliographic/bdleader.html contains a "dependencies"
section that designates the appropriate material type for the 008 based on the
Leader/06-07.
