Use Case:
We have 50 member libraries in 72 locations.  Most regular patrons enjoy
privileges at any member library.  However, libraries do offer limited use
cards to vacationers, etc.  Those patrons are only allowed to checkout and
place holds on local items.

We would love them to be able to place a hold in Aspen but have the circulation
rules applied such that they are only eligible for a hold on the copy owned by
their home library.

Unfortunately, that does not appear possible due to the order in which loan
rules are currently applied via the Koha Sys Admin interface.  We attempted to
create rules that would disallow checkouts and holds at all other libraries for
a given local use patron, but sadly it did not work.

Apologies if this is already in another ticket!
