One can renew item with unfilled hold by using
AllowRenewalIfOtherItemsAvailable. At least that works when one clicks those
checkboxes for renewal in the intranet's checkouts tab for patron.

No, the problem I personally have is that it is annoying the confirmation box
comes for an item with unprocessed holds (this should be configurable with
AllowItemsOnHoldCheckout) and also that SCO will let you check out items that
have holds in the Waiting state (i.e. they have been processed and when patron
shows up they expect them to still be there waiting for them – otherwise there
is no point of holds). 

I'm looking to unify all these three different ways of checking out an item. I
started to work on a patch yesterday, hopefully can share something working
with you today!
