Hi chris,

I had the idea of just adding a "branchcode" column to the
systempreferences and let the library define systempreferences for ""
(default behaviour) or "specified branch"

In C4->context(preference)->{anysyspref}, we could just do:

SELECT * FROM systempreference WHERE variable="anysyspref" AND
branchcode=<userbranchcode>;
if no result
SELECT * FROM systempreference WHERE variable="anysyspref" AND
branchcode="";

Thus, any syspref could be not systemwide, but librarywide.

That could be very nice to have, for example, the default library
network logo if you're not logged in in OPAC, then your own library logo
once you're logged in.
Or css, or any syspref.

For a few sysprefs that would be totally irrelevant to have "local"
sysprefs (like MARC flavour or IndependantBRanches), but that's so
obvious that I don't think we even should care in the code, just warn in
the doc.
