On the patron details page the 'Borrowernumber' is shown on the top left patron
information section.

'borrowernumber' is used as part of the query/URL and is the assigned number
given to a patron in the database.

It is also used in other areas of the staff interface, such as the patron batch
modification tool (Tools > Patrons > Patron batch modification) - see the tab
'By borrowernumber', where you can enter a list of 'borrowernumbers' to modify.

Should this be renamed to something more human friendly rather than what the
system uses to identify this field? Such as 'Patron number'.

Our terminology list says we should use patron, rather than member or borrower:
