Comment 3 for bug 1774268

* specify a default hold notify of ':phone:email' (maybe someday make this a configurable setting)

The default value could be set up via User Setting Type. We set them up with phone:email to tackle the issue caused by BiblioCommons (affecting only a few libraries), which does not set up phone_notify or email_notify in hold records if opac_hold_notify is not present.

Now on the web client, changing the default value seems having no effect on Patron registration screen.

I like to have the old behaviour on XUL back. Without the presence of opac_hold_notify, display both phone and email selected on patron edit/registration and in My Account. (BTW, these two checkboxes are still selected on Place Hold screen.)

Now this new behaviour on the web client is causing confusion (not knowing patron's choice is going with default of both email and phone or not being notified at all), and trouble when editing patron account (an entry for opac_hold_notify with "" is created).
