* Perhaps a search on mobile would be a nice addition as well? Might as well
hit all of the available phone numbers. :)
* limits by library and patron category still work with this patch in place.
* for usability, it might be nice to have the type of search "stick" - so if
you select phone for a search, it will stick on phone until you change it to
something else. Not completely necessary, but worth thinking about (I'm
thinking of a scenario where you type in a phone number, for example, and typo
it, and have to do another phone/email/borrowernumber search right away - is
that fringe or not?). Maybe a tickbox for "save this search configuration" that
would save the field, branch, and patron category options for the session (or
until the box is unticked).

* with this patch you still have to search the phone number exactly as it would
appear in the record. This either requires that we enforce a format for phone
numbers (or do some kind of conversion - but that kid of thing is stinky for
i18n). Mickey suggests searching by last 4, which would make sense in the US
but might be different in other parts of the world. I'm not sure how to
reconcile it. I don't think this is a show stopper for the feature though, it
may be as easy as telling staff 'do it like this: xxx xxx xxxx for easy
searching.'

* search by borrowernumber is a nice feature, works.
* search by email is a nice feature, works.

I'm prepared to sign off on this with the addition of the mobile to the phone
fields searched.
