--- Comment #20 from Christopher Brannon <cbrannon at cdalibrary.org> ---
I think authorized values are the way to go.  No hard coded values.  Unless
something is going to be tied to some automatic function down the road, and as
long as this is informational only, admins can put whatever they want. 
However, if the goal is to tie this somehow to fields that have been filled
out, maybe the choices are automatically filled in based off what contact
methods have been filled out, and the authorized values is supplemental only.

I would be in favor of the second choice, because it would automatically list
what has only been supplied, and you only need to add what isn't usual or
always want.  However, I understand that this would make this a more
challenging project.  Plus, what happens if one of the built-in methods is
selected and the patron has removed that method?  Does it default to something
else?

If the second option is too difficult to implement, then I would definitely
just go with the first.
