--- Comment #9 from Michael Hafen <[email protected]> ---
The use case is that we have records with multiple libraries using the record,
but they can't see each other's items (because of a local patch) so they don't
know it's a shared record.  We came up with the hard lock as a way to prevent
libraries from changing records which other libraries are also using in that
case.

I'd be fine with recording the "first library to use a record" in the
biblio_metadata, or doing as the original patch does, which is to check if
other branches are using it.

And maybe it would be fine to go from this hard lock to just the warning (and
add that warning to the advanced editor too).  I can see wording such as
"Warning: this is a shared record and should not be changed with out consulting
the other libraries: [list of other libraries]".

That may be the optimum compromise here, taking out the hard lock, and having
that warning on the relevant pages.  I'd have to discuss it with my librarians,
but I don't think that will be a hard sell for most of them.

I welcome your thoughts on this idea as well, of course.
