Having "nested" user records for users with dual or multiple statuses
I think that it would be useful for user records to have the option to have "nested" records where you have one user with one user profile, but under that profile, they have 2 or more identity profiles that contain other data that is linked to their different statuses.
The only parallel I can think of for it is when you have one bibliographic record and multiple item records attached to that one bib. record. All of them have the same main information, but individual record identities below.
This would be helpful because we have users that are current students who are also current staff or faculty who may also be a proxy user for someone else and all of those have their own barcode identifiers, checkout restrictions, etc. and we don't want to have duplicate accounts in our system, but the management of these accounts can be time consuming and convoluted at times. We want to give them the best privileges they can have, but we also don't want to lose all of their data either.
