Could someone point me to what has already been done? Those of us interested in helping with jsword might usefully get a discussion going which could lead to coordinated effort. Getting ahead of myself a little, one idea I've just had for the interface is to allow lookup in online versions. My view of the web is a little like an extension of my personal file space :), and I want to be able to access it as easily as I do the sword modules on my hard disk, and even not need to be aware of which versions I have locally and which are remote. This would also bypass the copyright issue for those versions everyone wants but can't get. Ideally, it ought to be possible to use it without even installing any modules locally. As a precedent of how convenient this can be, I'd mention the dict client. I would also like to see links for each verse to CCEL's world wide study bible sermons etc. For anyone with an always-on connection( which is increasingly a large portion of people ) these would, I think, be interesting features.
