That's probably a valid point. We could probably add itemnumber to a
non-numeric index for MARC21, although then we're indexing it twice when we
could just index it once and change the CCL alias instead.

I believe the default search is actually wordlist (:w), but that's true enough.
In MARC21, the biblionumber is indexed like so: "Local-Number:n Local-Number:w
Local-Number:s". So "local-number:9999" will get you the biblionumber stored in
the local-number "w" index. The ":s" is probably unnecessary as that's just for
sorting...
