This question is probably for me ;-)
The idea behind this is that some libraries have the following workflow: * a *librarian* prepares the basket during the week * on friday, a *administrative Assistant* put all baskets into a single order, that is sent to the vendor (and yes, the vendor want only one order, with 200+ lines, where there can be 20 librarians that made the basket, each being responsible of buying for a branch/topic/material/...) ATM, when you close a basket, you have an option to automatically create a basketgroup with the same name as the basket, and it is immediately closed for being printed. I think/suspect that it is Mathieu Saby library behaviour. A possible improvement could be to have a syspref to completely hide the basketgroup level: you close the basket, you get the PDF, and that's all. In this case, the basketgroup level would still be here, but unused & unnecessary.
