--- Comment #3 from Andrew Fuerste-Henry <andrewfh at dubcolib.org> ---
I'm not sure if this is a distinct bug or a wrinkle within this one. Sara and
Katrin's comments show that when the staff interface says a category has
Unlimited holds that rule doesn't really get saved in the database. We have a
slightly different scenario.

Our Default checkout, hold and return policy sets unlimited checkouts and 15
holds for all patrons. I want to make our staff category have unlimited
checkouts and unlimited holds. That should mean saving an entry in Default
checkout, hold policy by patron category setting blank values for both rules.
Koha will not save that at all, it just doesn't create a line in that table.

If I cheat and save a line with no value in total checkouts, a (meaningless for
us) value in onsite checkouts, and no value in holds, then it saves and tells
me that both checkouts and holds will be unlimited (but then I run into what
Sara and Katrin have documented, the rule doesn't *really* exist).
