[Koha-devel] about using XSLT for display of holdings (952)

I would be in favor of the detail display bein made with XSLT for items. 
That would of course be much more flexible, and would allow us to have 
custom fields easily (i.e. to display whatever ends up in 
more_subfields_xml as we please).

I think there are historical reasons (the template based display needs 
to work and took care of this with the table), and the fact that items 
are not stored in the marcxml anylonger might be a reason too, althought 
maybe something puts them back in the marcxml when doing the xslt 
processing. (And you get them in the marcxml when saving the record, 
even though the item level fields are not in biblioitems.marcxml.)
