Add ability to suppress a subfield in the 1xx
Add the ability to suppress subfield 1 in the 1xx field so it will not show in Sierra. This way it can be unsuppressed when the library starts using linked data.

This should also include all authorized fields, 6xx, 8xx, anything else I may have forgotten.

Even if you were using linked data, you probably don't want to look at this in your records all the time. It should hide away, and maybe have a rollover popup, or something to let you see it if you want to.
Also include subfield |0, not just |1.

At least once a week, I have to explain to staff what this link is--they all think it's some sort of cataloging error (which it's not), and/or they report that it's confusing to patrons. Until we have a clear path on how to use linked data, it would be most helpful to have this data suppressed.

Our cataloging staff enthusiastically supports this suggestion. I believe their exact words were "oh, hellz yeah."

Our staff in the branches get confused by this "messy" addition to the 1xx field; until we need it for linked data, we'd appreciate being able to suppress it.
