I agree with this. In addition, I think it should be worded more like:

When importing MARC files via the staging tools, the tool will attempt to find
and use the price of the currently active currency.

I agree, the default data convention is for the "Currency" field to be the ISO
code. However, that doesn't mean that everyone is currently following this
convention. I *don't* think this is a blocker. I could easily see the Currency
being "Brazilian real" while the ISO code would be "BRL". Since not everyone
memorizes ISO codes for currency, I think this may be an improvement anyway.
