--- Comment #9 from Christopher Brannon <cbrannon at cdalibrary.org> ---
So, my concern is, we don't want to just turn this system preference on for
everything, but we have had to, because we have a mixed bag of records. 
Usually, a record has multiple copies of the same thing.  We don't need one
person monopolizing those items.

However, we also have records that contain many different things.  Like
serials.  Every copy for a title is under one bib.  We do want patrons to have
the liberty of placing holds on other items while they have an issue from that
bib checked out.

We currently have to have this preference on.

The original function works as it should.  We also use the Holds per record
rule set to 1 for most items where we don't want people to place a second hold.
 But that does not account for an item that a patron has checked out.  They can
still place a hold.

What needs to happen is that we need to define if this Holds per record rule
includes current issues or not.  I think that is the key element that is being
overlooked here.
