--- Comment #11 from rgravel at marlboro.edu ---
David, these suggested changes arose out of a project a colleague and I did at
Marlboro College. We looked at how records are currently displaying, thought of
ways to improve the display, particularly with an eye toward incorporating some
RDA concepts like showing relationships, and asked ByWater whether the updates
were possible. We then spoke with Nicole and she had the great idea of bridging
the work we were doing with the larger Koha community, and so these bugs were
created to flush out our ideas and get feedback. 

Regarding the vertical bar, we thought that might be a good choice for
separating contributor listings because it parallels what is used to separate
multiple subject headings and it provides a very clear visual clue that there
are multiple, distinct bibliographic data points. We also suggested this
solution for the 246 listings (see Bug 13386).  A semi-colon is currently used
to separate all the 700s lumped into the "By" field and varying titles under
"Other Title," which I think makes reading and interpreting the record more
challenging since it doesn't break up the bits very well visually. 

To address Winona's questions: 
1) I would also support having the "Related Works" and "Contained Works"
display after "Other Title."
2) If I understand this correctly, then I don't think there is a conflict,
since a second indicator of 2 means it is a *contained work* and the appearance
of a subfield $i means it is a *related work.* So, in the example you provided
where there is a subfield $i, I would not code the second indicator as 2 to
begin with, because the book is not contained in the DVD, but is rather a
separate work related to the DVD; it cannot be both contained and related. But
maybe others see this differently?
