This is not quite true. It's tied to the serialsUpdate cron job and can be
customized/configured there. I looked into it as we didn't want to set the note
any longer, only the Late status.

I once filed a bug that we should create another note field for serial issues,
so we can have an internal and a public one. Not all libraries are creating
serial items and they like to add things like + CD in the note field. I think
there is a need for a public one too.
