I don't know if this problem is limited to SUGGEST_FORMAT or if it applies to
other AV categories as well.

To replicate:

1) Go to Administration > Authorized values > SUGGEST_FORMAT
2) Edit one of the values and change only the Description, not the Description
(OPAC), e.g.
Authorized value : BOOK
Description : Booooooook
Description (OPAC) : Book
3) Go to OPAC and log in
4) In your account, go to You purchase suggestions
5) Create a new purchase suggestion
6) Note that in the Item type drop-down menu, the label for Book is actually
Booooooook

I would expect the Description (OPAC) to be used here, and only if Description
(OPAC) is empty, then Description would be used.

(In case you're wondering the use case, while it is not possible right now to
make one value the default as in bug 20682, I usually advise my clients to put
numbers in front of the labels to force the alphabetical order in the order
they want. For example, 1. Book; 2. DVD; 3. Audiobook; etc. It would be nice if
we could have the numbers in the Description and no numbers in Description
(OPAC), that way patrons don't see the numbers.)
