Note: bug 28688 will be based on top of this one.

And will handle the case where a patron might become inactive in the time
between notification moment and expiry date.
If he is active at notification and if you would skip him, but becomes
inactive, than he would have no notice but would not be renewed. We need an
additional flag to view those patrons as inactive already at notify time.

The other way around could be a bit harder. He was not active but becomes
active again just before expiry. If you would auto renew, no problem. If you
sent a notice to inactive ones, no problem too. So only if you skipped inactive
ones, he may silently expire without a notice.
Note that we also have the NotifyBorrowerDeparture warn. Since he became active
again, he might have seen that one. It seems that SIP does not warn you for
expiry though. Opened bug 33878 for that.
If you send two expiry notices (we send a second one 7 days before), the risk
of this case is even smaller.
For now, I would consider this a side-effect of deciding to not inform inactive
users about expiry given the other possible warning. And document it.
