 * Hello,
 * I have customers trying to add items to the waitlist that are still in stock 
   because we don’t have the quantities they need when they visit our store. Currently,
   the plugin allows you to go through the motions of joining the waitlist no matter
   whether or not the item is in stock. This confuses customers into thinking that
   they are adding items to their waitlist, but we receive no indication on the 
   back end that they are doing so. Please implement 1 (or both) of the following
   changes:
 * 1. Allow a customer to join the waitlist even if we have an item in stock. We
   sell dishes, and sometimes a customer wants to order 8 of an item, such as a 
   dinner plate, and we only have 4 in stock. It would be great to be able to add
   those 8 they’re looking for so we can be alerted in the studio to manufacture
   more.
 * 2. Make the button unusable if the item is currently in stock. This is the less
   ideal of the two options, but it would at least prevent people from trying to
   join the waitlist on an item that we have in stock.
 * Thank You,
    Stephen
