Book ordering differences are a trivial case, already handled by
versification system definitions. E.g. the German and Luther
versification systems differ, in the NT, only in book order. If you
query Heb-Rev in German, you'll get the contents of 9 books. In Luther,
you would get only 4 books.
If you care about out-of-order verses, put some time into implementing
GenBook Bibles.

Hi David
Book order isn't such an issue because you don't tend to line up
passages across book boundaries.But I guess that's an interesting
question, since it would mean that Gen-Ex could mean different things in
different versifications. Presumably we're never going to support book
ordering being different to the extent that addressing things in
different Books means the OSIS IDs/Refs have completely different meanings.

Maybe the title should have included the phrase "book order".
As is fairly well known, the book order for the Epistles is different in
Eastern Canon than in the Western Canon.
This is just one such peculiarity for the NT.
There is also that odd move of some verses to a different chapter in
Romans
in the NRSV when compared to the KJV.
When it comes to the OT & DC books, things can be considerably more
complicated, as others have already noted.
French Bibles are among those in which the descriptive canonical
titles are
numbered as verse 1.
Yet we do not have a separate av11n for French Bibles.
The combining of Psalms 9 & 10 into a single Psalm, with subsequent
knock on
effects is also worth noting.
See https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Psalms#Numbering
btw. This is one of the 13 acrostic poems found in the OT.
We are all aware of Psalm 119 being the chief example,
yet Proverbs 31 & Lamentations also have acrostics,
and there are other Psalms which are acrostic too.
