What happened?

I scanned the front and back of a book. These were each identified separately and were given different valuations.

What did you expect to happen?

I guess I expect there to be some way to associate the front and back of a single item -- e.g. a book, vinyl, trading card, etc. but also other objects with this property. I know it'll be hard for suppressing duplicates vs. identifying multiple instances of an object, but it looks like in the UI we tell the user to increment Quantity in the single record vs. scanning multiple instances of an object. (I'm not sure how we'd handle multiple instances of an object but with individually different condition attributes; maybe these would have to be separate scans/records.

Steps to reproduce

Open the catalog, navigate to the Tote containing these items. In the row-based listing of Tote contents, the valuation data (and some other attributres) appear different where the plates are just front and back of a single image.
