--- Comment #6 from Donna <bwsdonna at gmail.com> ---
The current behavior for non-auto renewable items that have a hold on them
where the only available copy/copies is checked out is that the renew status
changes to On Hold as soon as that hold is placed.  While the hold may be
canceled before the due date, the patron and staff are both immediately able to
see the current non-renewable status.  

For libraries that only use auto-renew for some item types, this change will
cause even more confusion.

As a library user, I want to be able to see which of the 5 books I have checked
out that I need to read first, since it potentially will not be renewable. 
This is the behavior we have established in Koha.

I like the idea of showing that something is not potentially renewable due to a
hold, but even setting it back to saying No renewal (and then getting a
surprise renewal) would be better than the current situation.
