Thx Fiona for your feedback.
A busy librarian may ignore alerts at his own responsibility. (In this case the
user has been informed when he placed the hold.)
But yes, I agree that it would be consistent to show the alert just as a rental
charge is shown under the attention label of staff checkout. And I would rather
see it on this report; it is a small change and within scope.
