The byte limit is a restriction of the ISO-2709 format.  If we use MARCXML,
we can avoid that, but as I understand it, Zebra currently just ingests
binary MARC.  Analytics support could help with this by moving item data off
one biblio onto another, but there would be no guarantee of it working
universally.
