--- Comment #2 from Katrin Fischer <[email protected]> ---
If we implement your change as suggested, it will require more complex and
possibly confusing code and possibly more and more such changes over time.
Having a new separate database field would allow all libraries to have the best
of both worlds:

- All features would work as expected that rely on biblioitems.itemtype being a
valid itemtype (including holds behavior, article requests etc.) 
- It could probably solve your circulation rules issue.
- It would allow libraries who rely on those features to use the new column and
the features build on top of it, without having to choose one or the other.

What I am missing in the bug report is the use case of having the different
biblioitems.itemtype - like what do you achieve with it currently? What are the
use cases?
