We have also had comments in SCLENDS that a feature/option like this would speed some processes.

For example: at this particular library, our gov docs librarian is changing call numbers -only- on serials holdings (going back decades). She has commented that being able to access the call number without an extra step would make her life easier, in the course of a long project. Because she's performing this specific action over and over, I do see how going through "Show Volume/Copy details" every time would be a usability issue.

However, I agree that it would be preferable if this were a workstation or user setting, as the need/desire for such an action would vary, depending on one's workflow.

In a related note that may be something previously reported: I've had a lot of questions about the "text" next to the call number in the staff client. When people first see this, they tend to think that choosing that will allow them to edit the text of the call number or copy notes.
