--- Comment #2 from David Cook <dcook at prosentient.com.au> ---
When bulk importing an authority record, we should probably be moving the 001
into another field such as the 035$a, since the 001 should be storing Koha's
local authid (according to how we handle the 001 for authorities in Koha, not
necessarily according to the MARC specification).

bulkmarcimport.pl let's us do that with -keepids=035a, but it's tempting to
enforce it for all imports...because otherwise we could lose data that we need
later for matching.

Of course, moving the 001 to the 035$a doesn't follow MARC spec 100%. As the
035$a should be "(OldMarcOrgCode)OldControlNumber", which wouldn't be useful
for matching. We'd want to just use "OldControlNumber", otherwise it wouldn't
match anyway.
