Hi Matthias, I know about SHOW_BCODE, but always get the impression that it's
confusing to people and not so helpful. For example you can't really set a
default for patron attributes, so you'd have to turn it on for every single
one, if a library wants this as a general default. I don't think putting it on
the patron is ideal and they won't expect it on the details page. When
SHOW_BCODE was added, it was not even possible yet for a patron to change these
settings in the OPAC. It feels like these features are not well suited to work
on top of the patron attributes system. It feels a bit hacky.
