Hi,

I am thinking of the "093" field we use here. It has the following
structure (as far as I understand):

   a LC classification number
   c Cutter number
   y Year of publication
     - can be null (if a+c already uniquely identifies a book)
     - if not null, can be followed by a letter (a, b, c, etc.)
       if a+c+year cannot uniquely identify a book
   v Volume number (V.1, V.2, etc.) or other things like INDEXES,
     MANUAL, etc.

What if there is a feature where we can map more than one subfield
(e.g., c+y+v here) to one Koha field (e.g., biblioitems.subclass)?
Would this make any sense?
