I can basically reiterate what Katrin said; we rely on this behavior and I wouldn't want it to change. Of course, implementing an opt-in syspref is a fine alternative. Depending on what's appropriate to your situation, it seems like you could just create a visible placeholder item as a workaround to get the bib to display.

Best,

Hi Tomas,
 
we rely heavily on the described behaviour to hide the record if all items are hidden. It seems logical to me - what will a user do with a record, that has no items? They can't place a hold, they don't know where to find it, which library owns copies etc. To me it seems more confusing then helpful.
 
I think we shouldn't change the behaviour, especially because it has always worked like described and libraries might be unpleasantly surprised by a sudden change. Having the different behaviour as a configuration option would make sense.

Yeap, I filed this bug to deal with this:

Regards
