--- Comment #14 from Marcel de Rooy <m.de.rooy at rijksmuseum.nl> ---
If you scan a barcode 0123, the inventory tool will find the item too if it has
barcode 123 or even 00123 in the database. But if it finds multiple barcodes
with this pattern, it will report a duplicates error.

Would this behavior be problematic for a library? I strongly think that if you
have such data (both barcode 123 as well as 0123 in your table), you should be
warned about it and correct it. Obviously we can add a pref here, but do we
want a pref to tolerate bad data?
