I understand.  I have, and regular patron search works as expected.  I've added
fields we've needed to search by and the preference works.  That exception you
mention is understandable, but misleading because it does not work for all
patron searching, as in guarantor searching.  It needs to be consistent.

If we are going to have the cardnumber searchable regardless of what is in
DefaultPatronSearchFields, it should be mentioned on the preference, and work
EVERYWHERE, not just some places.  Otherwise we have oddballs like me trying to
figure out what is wrong and filing bugs.  :)
