batch holds

I'm trying to place a batch of holds and the error message at the top says I can't place holds on any of the items, but there is one item that has the option to place a hold (visually) - that one item however is checked out to the patron already, so it shouldn't be allowed to be placed on hold (I don't think). So basically the error message is right, but one of the items that can't be put on hold is still allowing holds. See attached.

I need someone to test this further to confirm that it's an error and what's causing it.

Also CCing Owen because the errors highlighted in yellow should probably go all the way to the end of the box - they look a bit short/funny now.

Please check whether this bug is still valid. I think that I'm unable to reproduce the problem, but I'm not exactly sure if I'm trying to duplicate it correctly.

I don't think one should expect a hold to be blocked when the title is checked out to that patron.

There is a system preference for this: AllowHoldsOnPatronsPossessions

I think the problem is, that if the record is one with different volumes or serial issues, placing a hold on something the patron has already checked out should be possible.
