That's interesting. I wonder if we should use more generic terminology like
"item_group" instead of "volume". Perhaps each group could have a translatable
label assigned so you could choose "Volume", "Kit", etc. 

This might be useful for libraries that provide kits, toy bags, computers (with
peripherals). Individual pieces could be barcoded and be items in their own
right, but be grouped together.
