Hi, Katrin--

I went through the test plan again:

--I still think that the "In:..." link should be moved in the OPAC, down to the
"Online access..." and "Availability..." area, as it is in the staff client.

--I did this step:
"15. Delete the 773$w and confirm host item info still shows correctly
but no longer links to biblio"
And the host item info does still show correctly, but the record does still
link to the host biblio.  It can be seen in my sandbox here:
https://staff-bug16522.sandbox.bywatersolutions.com/cgi-bin/koha/catalogue/detail.pl?biblionumber=16&searchid=

Could this be because there is a subfield 0 (zero) in the 773 field ("Host
biblionumber") which is not actually a valid MARC21 subfield?
(c.f. https://www.loc.gov/marc/bibliographic/bd773.html)

--Also, there is a subfield 9 in the 773 to "Host itemnumber," which is
nonsense (according to this cataloger)--analytic relationships should only
exist at the title level/biblionumber level.  If you have variation in contents
at the item level, the items should not be on the same biblio (says the
cataloger).

These are minor quibbles, but I think it would be best for them to be fixed
before going into master:
--Move the "In:..." in the OPAC near the "Online access..." and/or
"Availability:..." so users are more likely to notice it.
--Don't use an invalid 773 subfield 0 (zero) with a biblionumber in the 773,
but actually use the valid $w field to contain the biblionumber
--Don't retain/have an invalid itemnumber in the 773 field, since it's
unnecessary and nonsense for this type of relationship, and really use the
773$w.

If these quibbles are too minor, no problem--of course, I rely on y'all's
expertise for such decisions!  It's a great development!!
