I agree with you that in principle the action log ought to be
recording the item ID for checkouts and returns, not just the bib ID,
but I'm not pushing this patch as is:

* tools/viewlog.pl assumes that these types of log entries point to
the bib record, not the item record; changing how this gets logged
mid-stream would cause the patron modification log display to put to
the wrong records
* it would break any reports that a library may be running on action_logs

I think a better, longer-term fix would be to add additional columns
to action_logs so that it can distinguish between different types of
record ID more precisely.

Regards,

Galen
