Might depend on your definition of ultra-easy, but it's certainly 
possible without a major change.

Locate ue_config.js.  Likely under:
    /openils/var/xul/<build_id>/server/patron/ue_config.js

Within this file is the regular expression that matches on the postal 
code entry:
    const zipRegex          = /^\d{5}(-\d{4}|-?$)/; /* 12345 or 
12345-6789 */

If you want it to require a 4 digit number, change this line to:
    const zipRegex          = /^\d{4}/;

I'm not certain where this print is coming from.  I expect it's a 
similar change, but will need a bit more information to know where that 
change needs to be made.
