Earlier there was an extensive thread on what the OSIS purpose of the
divineName tag. It was stated that type="x-yhwh" was redundant as all
uses were only for replacing the tetragammon with God, El, Lord, ....
For this reason the KJV does not use the type attribute.
Also, the form of the content of the <divineName> tag should be the word
in Title case not ALL CAPS. It should be up to the filter to render it
appropriately. In HTML this could be small-caps. BibleDesktop uses all
caps. BibleCS converts it to a pseudo small-caps, converting it all to
caps and changing the font size for the second and following letters.
