[Koha-devel] OpacHiddenItems behaviour | Bug 10584

[Eric Phetteplace]

I can basically reiterate what Katrin said; we rely on this behavior and I
wouldn't want it to change. Of course, implementing an opt-in syspref is a
fine alternative. Depending on what's appropriate to your situation, it
seems like you could just create a visible placeholder item as a workaround
to get the bib to display.

Best,
