--- Comment #1 from Katrin Fischer <katrin.fischer at bsz-bw.de> ---
I think this is a difficult one.

Using borrowernumber makes people make the connection to the database field
named the same and to the URL parameter they see in a lot of places. Adding the
borrowernumber to the patron information was, I seem to remember, done to help
people make that connection.

If we did change it, maybe using something like "Patron ID" would make it more
obvious that this is an internal thing.

But I am not sure we might not cause more confusion... on the other hand in
translation I think we do use "Benutzernummer" in some places at least for
borrowernumber.

Maybe we need both: List of Patron IDs (borrowernumber) ?
