Sounds interesting, Brian. Reading your post reminded me of a
discussion earlier this year. I searched and found the thread I
remembered. It talks about individually implemented Sword protocols.
I was going to put a link to the thread in the sword-devel Archives
<http://www.crosswire.org/pipermail/sword-devel/> but I found the
March 2007 archive incomplete.
*"Archived on:* /Mon Mar 12 13:42:02 MST 2007/" so everything after
that isn't available.
If you still have them locally, look for the subject "Sword URL" on
3/13/2007. It was an off shoot of the subject "dynamic versification"
Specifically it mentions these implementations.
MacSword - sword://
"MacSword has installed a protocol handler into the Safari web browser
so that the sword:// urls are passed off to MacSword, starting it if
it is not running, rather than displaying them in the browser. (It
doesn't work very well and I can get it to crash MacSword)"
JSword - bible://
"With JSword, I have played with embedding IE and FireFox as the
display engine for BibleDesktop."
GnomeSword - sword://
"GS understands "sword://ModuleName/KeyIntoThatModule" where the key
is obviously a verse reference for Bibles and commentaries, but just
as easily is a treekey for genbooks and lexdicts."
Hope this is helpful.

There's also a KDE kioslave which implements sword:// in Konqueror.
