In our previous home-grown reserves system, instructors were able to search through all readings in the system, but the search results were unaffiliated with a particular instructor or course -- similar to the way the Ares Client allows staff to search by "Item Information." Instructors *loved* this feature, and when they cloned an item into a new course, it showed up in the copyright queue for assessment just like a new request would.
Frankly, the list feature in Ares is already pretty difficult to navigate. If the process for allowing instructors to clone items requires working from a list, rather than being able to search freely, I wouldn't have used it or found it worth the development time.
Then again, I'm no longer working primarily in reserves, so weigh my opinion more lightly than that of current reserves practitioners.

Could there be a key in the customization manager either to opt all instructors in to sharing their items by default, or to require them to opt in for each course individually?

Also, re: privacy:
In the United States, the Higher Education Opportunities Act of 2008 requires that educational institutions & bookstores display ISBNs & prices for all required textbooks. (See 20 U.S. Code § 1015b d:Provision of ISBN college textbook information in course schedules / https://www.law.cornell.edu/uscode/text/20/1015b)
Of course, Ares can hold much more than just required textbooks, but for textbooks themselves, instructor preference about privacy shouldn't be a concern, since they're legally required to disclose textbook information anyway.
