--- Comment #38 from David Cook <dcook at prosentient.com.au> ---
More over, if we indexed LDR05, we would be able to hide "deleted" records from
the OPAC like we do with "suppressed" records. 

While we had to worry about that OpacSuppression bug, which erroneously
returned 0 results when the OpacSuppression index was completely empty, we
don't need to worry about that too much since we started using @attr 14=1
http://bugs.koha-community.org/bugzilla3/show_bug.cgi?id=15198. We could
prepend @attr 14=1 at the start of all queries (so that it applied to all query
parts) and we wouldn't encounter that problem anymore.

I desire the above behaviour also because of what David Noe originally
described here. It would be nice if records with a LDR05 "d" were deleted
during the overlay of existing records during an import.

In my case, I'm downloading records via OAI-PMH, but when I get a record with a
"deleted" status, I'm not given a metadata record. I just have an identifier
and a deleted status.

So I can create an empty MARC record, change LDR05 to "d", inject the
identifier, and then match to existing records in Koha. 

However, I don't want to overlay an empty record over a non-empty record in
Koha, and then have it show up in search results in the OPAC. Actually, I
wouldn't want it to show up in search results in the staff client either, but
that might be unavoidable... I suppose I could also add a fake title to the
record like "This record has been deleted" or some such, although that's not
translation friendly...
