[Koha] Anonymizing circulation history at patron-level?

[Joann Ransom]

I find this whole issue so culturally at odds with the way we think here 
in NZ. Our patrons LOVE that their reading history is saved and they can 
access it anytime and sort it and whatever. I can't imagine living in a 
society where you would even consider that your reading record was not 
private.

Ah the joys of living at the end of the world where no one is interested 
in you  :)

Cheers Jo.
