The items table in 3.2 has a new field stocknumber (varchar 32). 

In UNIMARC this field is mapped to 995$j called Inventory number:

('995', 'j', 'Inventory number', 'Inventory number', 0, 0, 'items.stocknumber
', 10, '', '', '', 0, 0, '', '', '', NULL),

In Germany we also use inventory numbers/accession numbers. Those are attached
on item level, not on biblio level and very important to the library. In the
past I have used a mapping from 952$i to more_subfields_xml. 

This made it hard to query the inventory number and it was not displayed in a
lot of places in staff and opac.

I would like to add a permanent mapping from 952$i to items.stocknumber in the
bibliographic frameworks and add a search index for it to zebra.

This would also help to make sure the field is not used for another new
feature.

Please tell, if you think this is a bad idea!
