Turning off Item Renewal at the Patron level
I would like to be able to adjust auto-renewals at a Patron level in addition to the item level. This would help some of our patron's who may have difficulty understanding how renewals work. This may seem silly, but we have had some cognitively impaired patrons become severely confused and upset when they think they are "wasting renewal's". Being able to adjust these settings individually at the patron record portion would be extremely helpful. Excluding them from the auto-renewal notice is a band-aid, but this causes other confusing issues with the patrons as a result.

A year late, but I would also love this at the patron or patron code level.
We have various patron types with limited privileges that we would like to have a little bit tighter control over.

Agreed. While the majority of our patrons really like auto-renewal, we regularly receive requests from patrons who want to opt out.
