When membership renewals come up for a patron, it would be useful for libraries
to make a decision about automatic renewals of membership, based on current
activity at the library. This would be a benefit/advantage for users who don't
come into the physical branch but use curbside or electronic services. If Koha
could look at borrowers.lastseen - last time a patron has been seen (connected
at the OPAC or staff interface), this could be used as a way to identify that
activity and renew the patron accordingly. 

In addition, if a library uses TrackLastPatronActivity the borrowers.lastseen
date could also identify when a patron is using SIP-related connections. 

It would be great to have a system preference that would allow you to turn this
function on or off for libraries who want patrons to come in to renew
membership (ie show driver's license for mail verifying address). 

It would also be great to have a tie-in notice that automatically notifies them
when they have been renewed!
