Compared to the structure used in OpacPasswordChange, I do not see how this
adds flexibility, only how it adds complexity.

In both cases, we're able to set a default behavior system-wide and make
individual categories override that default (whether the default is Yes and
we've setting some exceptions to No or vice versa).

With CheckPrevCheckout, one gets the very questionable bonus of being able to
completely hide the override option from the patron category setup. I can see
how that's appealing for a user who's actively chosen not to use it. But on the
other hand it greatly reduces the likelihood of new users finding this feature.
