There are several uses for such material. 1) Karl has suggested a module to render on the fly into it with some different markup. This is fine by me. 2) Contrary to your notion of faithfulness to the paper, a fair number of our texts have never been printed at all or the module has been created as a valid and quite possibly more important way of distribution than any paper Bible will be. Further, the languages where this is the case are often languages where there is a a dearth of any kind of sensible study material - quite unlike English. So, with latter in mind I very much intend to create expanded modules, exceeding any pre-existing paper editions - in conjunction with the publishing teams for such languages. Why should e.g. the absence of a printed Strong numbered Bible or a Bible with red letter marking prohibit the use of a Public Domain text for exactly this?
