Issue / Volume number in a series #52

It would be great it there were a seperate field to designate the volume number of a series. At the moment, we have to write the designation of the number in the same field as the number itself and there is no option for a translation, eg. if I insert: Band 1 it appears on our English sites as "Band 1" as well.

It would be fine to have a form field where I can write "Band" for the German site and "Vol." for the English (and the number itself seperatly in another field).

@AnjaKonopka, we can solve this by recording the series position only as a number and add a localized prefix "Band" or "Volume" only when it is displayed. Still, it's unfortunate that the description suggests you should add "Book" or "Volume" to the entry.

@kadowa, to add a localized prefix was what I head in mind. We would write in the "main" field nothing but the pure number then.
