--- Comment #7 from Owen Leonard <oleonard at myacpl.org> ---
Looking again at these changes and trying to figure out the logic of which
fields should be displayed for which types makes me think you're right in
wondering why we try to change the display for different patron types.

Maybe we should take a step back and try to isolate what differences are really
necessary and what differences might have originated with some library's
specific needs.

Some starting assumptions:

- Any category type could easily have any kind of contact information.
- Child patrons and Professional patrons need to show guarantor information
- Organizations should not have the same name fields humans have

Another idea: Making  BorrowerUnwantedField and  BorrowerMandatoryField
configurable at the patron-category level would offer libraries better control
over the decisions that the template currently makes for them.
