Although the number of holds can be set in the circulation rules, this is based
on a combination of patron category / item type. One of our customers would
like to limit the overall number of holds a specific patron category can place
to be 6 but the holds allowed in the circ rules means that they can reserve 6
books and 6 DVDs for example.

I definitely would like to see this enhancement as it would be used widely I
believe in the public libraries especially.

Could be achieved by enhancing the maxreserves system preference but an
alternative option would be to add an extra circulation policy - e.g. Default
hold limit by patron category (similar to the Default loan limit by patron
category that currently exists).
