Different versification systems in Sword

[GoogleCodeExporter]

What steps will reproduce the problem?
1. I have heard, that in the Sword format the Englisch versification is used 
for all Bibles, regardless their original versification system. So the German 
Bibles (e.g. the GerNeUe = Neue Evangelistische Übersetzung) are put into the 
Englisch system, which does not work well (e.g. for some Psalms, e.g. PSA 3) 
2. Now the UZ'MK Bible (= Uzbek Bible 2011) uses at least for some Psalms a 
non-Englisch versification system, eg. PSA 3 (see attached screen-shot of PSA 
3:1) 

What is the expected output? What do you see instead?
->? Can non-Englisch versification systems be used in Sword?
->? If yes, how well can xs handle this (UZ'MK/PSA shows some serious problems 
with PSA 9 and 10 in xs)

What version of the product are you using? On what operating system?
xs 3.4./Linux/Firefox

Please provide any additional information below.

SWORD does support  different verse systems now. 

To see the verse system of any module, right-click on the module tab, then 
choose About. After the module description that appears is a "more" link. Click 
that to view the .conf file contents. If it says: Versification=<some-name> 
then the module is versified differently than KJV. If Versification is missing 
or it says Versification=KJV, then the module is KJV versified, just as all 
SWORD modules have been in the past.

Parallel viewing of different verse systems requires a mapping system to map 
between the different verse systems. Xulsword only maps between KJV and Synodal 
at present. But SWORD has plans to expand mapping ability to the other verse 
systems as well.
