In translation we don't have a lot of context to work from. At the most, we see
the file a string comes from, but that is not always helpful. There are certain
words that can be used in English in different contexts, but would require
different translations in other languages. Item is such an example.

It would be nice if we could avoid using items when we are not talking about
holdings. These two strings listed below refer to when selecting no 'item' for
adding to a list/cart from the result list:


koha-tmpl/intranet-tmpl/prog/en/includes/js_includes.inc:        var
MSG_NO_RECORD_SELECTED = _("No item was selected");
koha-tmpl/opac-tmpl/bootstrap/en/includes/opac-bottom.inc:        var
MSG_NO_RECORD_SELECTED = _("No item was selected");

Maybe we could use

- no record
- no title
- no search result entry ?

instead.
