What kind of problems?

The biblionumber is the unique database assigned key for Koha, but as
Chris has pointed out it is useless in another context and outside of Koha.
I'd argue that reusing a deleted biblionumber like how you described
sounds like a bug - it should not be possible to do that. One of the
reasons being that then you'd have the same biblionumber in biblio and
deletedbiblio and that would create problems.

The biblionumber can be used to match on if reloading records. I have
exported MARC records, made some mass changes, and then reloaded the
changed records by matching on the biblionumber. (Match points 10, if
points > 5 then go.) Worked well.
I have even loaded new records by assigning a biblionumber that I know
had been deleted in Koha.
They loaded fine and assumed the biblionumber that I assigned.

Hi Tim
You could edit either the .tt file or make a custom XSLT file to do that.
But please do not make the mistake that was made with MARC and give a
machine used value any human significance. The biblionumber is the
primary key on a database row to allow Koha to identify a biblio.
It should not be given any human significance, accession numbers,
control numbers etc play that role for humans.
Hope this helps

Is there an easy way to get the biblionumber of a record to display
somewhere on the "normal" view for a record in the staff interface? Or
would it require an actual programming change?
As it is, it displays in the URL in the browser navigation window, but
I would like to be able to print out a record with it showing on the
printout.
Thanks,
