A staff member had an idea.  Once in a while we have a patron come through that
does not have ID or library card with them (maybe jogging or biking or such). 
What if we could bring up their account, and if they have an SMS number set, we
could click a button on their account, and it texts them a random code, and
that code also shows on the patron screen (that goes away when you navigate
away from the page).

Maybe this could be a good alternative?
