Hi Christopher, we don't use the longoverdue process ourselves, I was not aware
that it's used in combination with the overdue notices. This is really
interesting. For our libraries the major concern is that it should be timed
with the creating of fines, which is usually happening in a weekly interval
here. 

I wonder if it could make sense to not tie it overdue notices but to their own
set of notices by itemtype? Both could live on the same configuration page tho.
