I think the feedback idea is both a great one, and also out of scope for this
specific bug and development. What I'm imagining is inside the hold trapping
code, every time we skip over a hold of higher priority, we add it to a list of
skipped holds. This list then needs to be passed all the way back to the
template where we can have some kind of 'reason' icon that when clicked will
show the higher priority holds that were skipped, and the reason they were
skipped. This would definitely be useful even excluding this specific
development, and is only tangential to this bug report. I have filed bug 26027
for this new functionality.
