>From a glance through code, I feel that this routine fixup_cardnumber is still
quite confusing and complicated. Should it really be done this way?
With compliments for your hard work, but is it true that we spend so much
effort on this only because we want to see a cardnumber already before hitting
the Save button?
Why not simplify it by disabling the cardnumber and probably also the login
code fields for Insert Patron, generating them when saving the record and just
displaying them after that?
Note that e.g. we do not have a biblionumber too before saving a biblio record,
etc. (Some other fields like 001, 005 are also finalized only when saving.)
