[FR] add intent filter for URLs: http://___some online bible site___/$ book/$ ch/$ verse/$ end verse #188

The usual way for apps to interoperate in Android is opening and intercepting 
URLs through intent filters. As an example, see 
http://code.google.com/p/osmand/issues/detail?id=1839

I suggest to add similar feature.
Applications:
1. I make a daily Bible reading in calendar format. I don't paste the passage 
in it but put an url, e.g. http://jesuschrist.ru/bible/go.php?b=48&c=4&v=18
2. I also prepare some Bible-related offline dictionaries, some of them have 
hrefs to Bible verses
In both cases I'd like the And Bible be used instead of a browser (would be 
just great for offline cases!)

One subissue raises here: with v10n, it's easy to miss the right passage. Maybe 
it's worth to have a setting in the app like "default v10n" or the like.

Some thoughts on how a URI standard might work for front-ends are available in

That'd be ideally configurable, if it is possible.
