I assume you mean that expiration date can't be changed in OPAC? Because
changing it from the staff side seems to be working fine.

So from OPAC point of view this sure isn't ideal situation. To fix this we
could:
1) show default expiration date to the field while placing hold
2) allow patrons to change expiration date via OPAC (this should probably be a
syspref)
3) do both.
