--- Comment #4 from Gretchen Maxeiner <[email protected]> ---
This is a nice improvement and everything worked as per the test plan. The
order of elements was as expected, punctuation was as expected, there were no
issues with quotes or ampersands, and absent subfields did not throw off the
expected punctuation.

There are three small things I noticed that might be considered here.

1. ISBNs often have terminal punctuation of : in $a when there is a $c. It
would be nice to strip this since it is more obvious in the current display.
Example: 0198709862 (pbk.) :

2. In instances where there are repeating subfields, Koha supplies a pipe (|).
It might be better to drop terminal punctuation from the subfield ahead of a
pipe. Example: Harmondsworth ; | Baltimore : Penguin, 1974...

3. In instances where there are multiple $a's (place of publication) and $b's
(publisher/distributor) in a 260/264, or multiple 264s because of different
roles, Koha currently groups those by subfield, losing the natural order and
relationships between place and company. It was like this pre-patch as well but
if we wish to follow ISBD this could potentially be upgraded.

These were all present already in the original search results display so I only
mention in case you wish to address them in this work. Overall the display is
so much better!
