--- Comment #46 from David Cook <dcook at prosentient.com.au> ---
In any case, I reckon backwards compatibility is important, especially since
we're still using "v1" for the API, so I don't think we can change the existing
"location" field.

Whether we embed the data or provide a lookup reference, I think it needs to be
as a separate field. 

On non-Koha projects where I've needed to maintain backwards compatibility,
I've added fields like "location_description".

Sometimes, I think that authorised values should be removed from item data, and
replaced with proper foreign key references. 

Location is an important field which by rights deserves its own database table
I think. 

Of course, that data migration is easier said than done...
