Remember that most users probably don't keep modules of many languages
installed, perhaps one, two, or at most three modern languages. And then
again, if you just add the option to select all, developers who install
the whole repository don't have to choose it. :)

In Advanced Search, click the Custom Lists tab. Create a new list, name

Shame on me for not knowing GS better (I've just never been a fan of
Gnome's look). I really like the advanced search dialog (I never knew
it was there!), though a "search all modules" or something like that
would be nice to save time. Or perhaps in the custom list creation

The idea of being able to search not only text but also keys and
cross-references is exciting. That way if you are searching for "faith"
you don't get thousands of hits that aren't so useful but you can focus
on hits that are speaking directly to the issue of faith rather than
just making an in

Good idea.
In the wiki, we are trying to put together a "Features List" for the
ideal application: http://www.crosswire.org/wiki/index.php/Frontends:Fe

In GS, I use a custom module list I call "Good Translations" in which I
have included all the English modules I've g

I don't personally have a strong opinion about identifying the
EarlyFathers Genbook as containing heretical material, though I think

kind of people who would make use of this.
Regarding the question of breaking up the modul

Apropos of this, I'd like to put in a plug for The Theology Program,
