Target Milestone: ---
Should renewals have a window of time (both manual and auto) for renewals, in
order to prevent checkout abuse.
Consider, you have ManualRenewalPeriodBase set to "the old duedate of the
checkout". You check it out, and the patron or staff at some point before it
is due hits renewal (either on accident or on purpose). For this scenario,
lets say it is done right after checkout. This could effectively work around
limits to not renew if the item goes on hold. If the library allows a couple
of renewals, this prevents bringing the item back sooner if others are waiting
for the item.
I haven't seen such a window, but allowing a window of x number of days before
and after the due date to renew would make sense, to limit people gaming the
checkout period.
