[Koha-devel] My first try with DBIx Class

It's great to see you starting to use DBIx::Class! What you've written
looks pretty great, but I don't really understand the purpose of
Koha/DataObject/Discharge.pm. It seems to be basically a wrapper that
provides no enhanced business logic and just increases overhead. In fact,
in the borrower method, you use GetMember, when you could instead take
advantage of DBIC and use $discharge->borrower() instead. I'd also
recommend using 'borrowernumber' as the primary key, rather then borrower (
just to keep things standard and unambiguous. )

Other than that, great work!
