--- Comment #5 from Owen Leonard <oleonard at myacpl.org> ---
This is not valid XHTML:

<p class="problem"><h5>The item was returned</h5></p>

It also perpetuates a class that we need to get rid of (not that one would know
by looking at the code). The "problem" class is obsolete.

This is a message rather than a warning, so it belongs in a different kind of
dialog:

<div class="dialog message">
    <h5>Item successfully checked in</h5>
</div>

The above markup is valid, uses the proper message box style, and uses the
correct phrase "checked in" which is default in the main "en" translation.

I would like to see some references posted on this bug about the best way to
offer text to screen readers which is hidden for sighted users. I think current
Koha users are accustomed to the idea that "no news is good news" when checking
out. Adding a message for those users disrupts their work flow by requiring
that they distinguish between messages with actionable information and messages
without.
