Hi Tim,
We ran into the same issue, but because we only want collections to
float to/from certain locations. The following is how we handled it in
the short-term. Basically, ignoring "floating" unless it was within a
short list of org units.

We are a multisystem consortium and we have one system that is looking
at using floating collections. They were doing a little testing and
found.
1. Toggled a copy to floating collection
2. Checked the item out at branch 1 and the copy had circ library as
branch 1
3. Returned the item to branch 2 and it set the item to a circ
library as branch 2 (which is what they wanted)
However, they also found that when the item was returned to a library
outside of their system, the circ library was changed to that library
outside of their system.
Is there a way to prevent this from happening and only allow it to
change within the system? I didn't think this was possible but I want
to make sure before I answer the question.
