Why not add a simple edit function in Sword itself, with just some simple functions, like font-properties and text-references, something like E-Sword has. Then users can easily add their own content without all conversion problems. When all markup is done by Sword, the user can't mesh up the markup... Maybe also a good idea to make a link page on the Sword website where users can add a link to their homepage, where they host their own created content, then the Sword people don't get blamed when the module is buggy..
