The more I think of it, the less I like this patch : it introduces a duplicate
information in our database: the last patron is in old_issues and in
items.last_borrower
I agree that the old_issues information can be removed by anonymisation. But a
better option, imho, would be to improve anonymization, to have something like:
* anonymize
* anonymize except the last patron
* don't anonymize
However, I'm not the RM, so Galen final cut. But I really think that, on the
long term, this patch introduces some inconsistencies, and thus, pain.
