- the public catalogue is bound to the machine itself by default (OPAC_BIND) and,
if ever exposed, requires a library-card login (OpacPublic=0)
- a read-only guest login (VIEWER_USER/VIEWER_PASSWORD) in Quick Add: it may load the
page, read state and search; every other endpoint is admin-only (403); the page
shows only Find a book
- the guest deliberately has NO Koha account: Koha's 'catalogue' permission, the
only one that allows searching, also allows creating/editing label layouts and
templates (tested: a guest created a layout), so it cannot be read-only
- koha/ensure.pl (every start): staff-home 'Library tools' block, and removal of a
guest account an earlier version created
- kiosk add-on shows Find a book signed in as the guest; the admin login never
goes into the kiosk config (tested, incl. a mutation check); old public-catalogue
tabs are cleaned up
- existing installs keep their current public-catalogue behaviour on update
