If a title has some holds on it and I check it in at the borrowing library, I
got a message telling me about a hold.  I clicked "Ignore" on that message. 
The barcode was not transferred back to the owning library at this point even
though it should have been.  The barcode still shows as having a Current
Location.

Notes from Ian on the code inspection:

The portion of code that triggers the automatic return home is not called if a
hold is found; this makes sense in the case where you're filling the hold,
since you'd be transferring to that library instead of the home library.

But when you 'ignore', nothing additional happens.  The ignore button just
makes the confirmation box disappear; not further actions are taken.  So the
code to do the transfer is never performed, and the item sits at the
holdingbranch library.

Obviously this is not what people expect.  If you're ignoring the hold, you
want the checkin to proceed as if the hold had never popped up in the first
place, and that means doing a return home if appropriate.
