In practice it is difficult for Koha to tell between biblios that are in there 
because a book is on order (and therefor is reservable and shows up in the 
catalogue), and biblios that just don't have items on them because someone 
didn't delete them properly.

I think that you'd need a report that got all the biblios without items in a 
list, and then you went throug and deleted the ones you didn't need.  It would 
be pretty gutting to have all your partly aquired items deleted again.

OR it could be something that comes with simple acquisitions - where you're 
only putting in items once you have them in your hand.
