--- Comment #1 from Jason Robb <[email protected]> ---
It would save a lot of time and headache if there were an override layer above
the existing circ/fine rules setup.

We heavily rely on an "All/All" rule at each branch to reduce the total number
of rules needed to accommodate a fluctuating number of item types and patron
categories. That works well, but it means if we need a rule that affects all
branches, it requires a new rule line for each individual branch.

As an example, we don't want self-registered patrons to be able to check out
until they upgrade their account to a regular patron category. At the moment,
every branch needs a SELFREG/All rule to prevent checkouts to the SELFREG
category. If those rules aren't set, they'll hit the All/All rule for that
branch before they can reach a SELFREG/All rule on the "Standard rules" setup.
A global override rule would reduce the rules needed from one per branch to
just one rule.

Another possible implementation might be to make a "Global rule overrides for
all libraries" page similar to the "Standard rules for all libraries" page,
where any rules set on the overrides page would take top priority.
