Ok, I am not going to insist on the switch any longer. I've also added the
topic to the dev meeting agenda a few days ago, because I think we need to
reach a decision that will unlock the 2 waiting bugs and more to come for good.

But... from our own experience: especially the self reg ones are quite
dangerous. If you put a 'wrong' patron category type into the pref, it will
delete a big chunk of your users without batting an eye (and they are
delete-deleted, not moved).
