Is it possible to move the keychooser pop-up buttons up slightly?  They 
cover the first line of text and the selected text is always at the top 
of the window.

The header seems to take up a bit of screen real-estate.  I personally 
rarely change the Bibles selected for parallel view.  I change often 
with commentaries, but I prefer more text space for the commentaries 
because they are sometimes long and I keep more commentary windows open 
as well.  It's good that they can be disabled.  A global setting to 
disable them would be nice too.  The "remove" option should be disabled 
if the work is the only work in the view.

The verse headers might be very useful for beginners.
