Comment 12 for bug 1929872

Hi John,

Yes, that's the drawback I mentioned. Adding "container" to the list of filters that the opac knows about (and lets you remove via a checkbox) should be simple, IIRC, but I haven't looked at the code for that in a while.

The reason carousels don't work like bookbags is that the container type is specific to each. IOW, containers are a general framework, and the type is used to decide which are used in various interfaces. The bookbag CGI parameter uses the container filter behind the scenes, but it specifies the bookbag type. This it to keep future container types (and even current ones, like "staff_client" type ones that the staff buckets use) from "leaking" into areas we don't want them in.
