I only spotted the use of this novel idea for the first time today...

The milestone version of the OSIS q element

In the Tyndale House Edition of the ESV module ESV_THE
the verses with speech are coded like this example in the OSIS:

> $$$Genesis 29:7
> He
> <w lemma="strong:H00559">said</w>,
> <q level="1" marker="“" sID="01029007.1"/>
> <w lemma="strong:H02005">Behold</w>, it is
> <w lemma="strong:H05750">still</w>
> <w lemma="strong:H01419">high</w>
> <w lemma="strong:H03117">day</w>; it is
> <w lemma="strong:H03808">not</w>
> <w lemma="strong:H06256">time</w> for the
> <w lemma="strong:H04735">livestock</w> to be
> <w lemma="strong:H00622">gathered together</w>.
> <w lemma="strong:H08248">Water</w> the
> <w lemma="strong:H06629">sheep</w> and
> <w lemma="strong:H01980">go</w>,
> <w lemma="strong:H07462">pasture</w> them.
> <q eID="01029007.1" level="1" marker="”"/>

NB. For readability, each XML element starts on a new line in this email.
The colours are mine too.

Verses in the NT in which the words of Jesus are in quotation marks are coded 
as in this example:

> $$$Matthew 3:15
>
> <w lemma="strong:G1161">But</w>
> <w lemma="strong:G2424">Jesus</w>
> <w lemma="strong:G0611 strong:G3004 strong:G4314">answered</w>
> <w lemma="strong:G0846">him</w>,
> <q marker="" who="Jesus">
> <q level="1" marker="“" sID="40003015.1"/>
> <w lemma="strong:G0863">Let</w> it be so
> <w lemma="strong:G0737">now</w>,
> <w lemma="strong:G1063">for</w>
> <w lemma="strong:G3779">thus</w> it is
> <w lemma="strong:G4241 strong:G1510">fitting</w> for
> <w lemma="strong:G2254">us</w> to
> <w lemma="strong:G4137">fulfill</w>
> <w lemma="strong:G3956">all</w>
> <w lemma="strong:G1343">righteousness</w>.
> <q eID="40003015.1" level="1" marker="”"/></q>
> <w lemma="strong:G5119">Then</w> he
> <w lemma="strong:G0863 strong:G0846">consented</w>.

AFAICT, this has never been documented in the developers' wiki.

NB. David retired from Tyndale House about 5 years ago.
