Summary: Return All items on patron detail does not initiate
transfer of holds
Product: Koha

Example:
Library 1 has a patron who has 5 books checked out (A, B, C, D, E). We have
three branches in our system(1, 2, 3).
A is an item from library 1 (the local branch) with no holds.
B is an item from library 2, with no holds.
C is an item from library 1 with a queued hold at library 2.
D is an item from library 2 with queued holds at library 3.
E is an item from library 1 with queued holds at library 1.
When all items are returned via Return All:
Item A is returned normally (ok)
Item B is returned, but transfer is initiated without staff notification
(problematic, but merely annoying)
Item C is returned, but nothing happens. A transfer to fill the hold at Library
2 should be initiated, but is not. Koha checks it in and changes the current
location to library 1. (very problematic)
Item D similar to item C, the item is orphaned at Library 1. (very problematic)
Item E needs more testing at this time, but wanted to get this bug submitted.
Will add comment to elaborate.
</example>
Return ALL items on the patron detail page does not work well with
holds/multiple branches.
Proposed ways to fix this:
RETURN ALL items presents each item in sequence to deal with individually
(confirm/transfer/return home). Seems clunky.
RETURN ALL items presents all items in an ajax-y way to click click click
confirm/transfer/return home). Less clunky, but still... eh.
Other ideas? I'm drawing a blank.
