[Koha] Koha software based self-check

[Viktor.Sarge at regionhalland.se]

I'm planning to use a cheap touchscreen - would that work as well as the simple interface implies?

Heh, that is clever! But if there is no mouse, is there any way for
patrons to terminate their "session"? Or does their list of borrowed
stuff remain on the screen until the page reloads/autoterminates the
session (after 120,000 milliseconds, apparently)? And does that not
make it possible (not to say unavoidable) for the next patron in line
to register books on the account of the previous patron who used the
self checkout?

We leave the mouse hooked up and instruct our patrons to be sure to end their own session.
