Summary: False search results when searching for words in headings

Initial Comment:
I am using BibleTimesvnr1823 on WindowsXP 

How to recreate the problem : 
Open BibleTime and open a Bible that has Section Titles (for example the King James Bible)  
In the KJV, you can see that each chapter has a title.  In screenshot 1.png the title is 'Chapter 1'

Message:
Great.  I can confirm that svnr1919 the titles display correctly in the
search box.  We can close this bug.  

Although, I still am curious why the title of a chapter is associated with
the last verse of the previous chapter.  I suppose that this is a problem
with the KJV text, but I have not looked to see if this is the case.

Message:
Daniel, I believe I fixed your problem. The entries like Gen 1:31 are
actually Gen 2:0. Now the display correctly includes pre-chapter and
pre-book material, like in the KJV, again.

Apologies, I submitted the bug while trying to attach the first screenshot.
 So I'll just continue from the previously submitted bug.

2. Type Ctrl+O to open the 'Search in open works' dialog box.  
3. Search for the word 'Chapter'.  See screenshot 2.png.

Notice that the word 'Chapter' is listed as being part of Genesis 1:1, and
that the next reference which claims to contain the word 'Chapter' is
Genesis 1:31.

4. Click on the 'Genesis 1:31' entry in the results box.  See screenshot
3.png

The text or Genesis 1:31 is displayed on the right. 

Bug : 
Notice that except for the very beginning of the book titles are not
displayed in the search window.  Either titles should be displayed
throughout the entire book or they should not be displayed.   

Bug :
Notice that the word, 'Chapter' is not contained within this verse.  If
you continue to click on other verse references in the results box you will
find that none of these verses that follow contain the word 'Chapter'
either.

Possible solutions to consider :
First of all, it would be good to consider what exactly it is that we are
searching.  Are we searching the entire text of the currently opened
document?  or are we searching just the actual Bible verses.

There is a bit of ambiguity because if a module is indexed by Bible
verses, not necessarily all text with in that module belongs to a
particular Bible verse (for example Titles, Footnotes, endnotes, strongs,
etc ...). 

It seems that the searching feature is able to search all the text within
a module but that its results display only text which is part of a Bible
verse (except in the case of the first reference in the result box)

Sidenote :
It might be good to distinguish between 'searching the open work' and
'searching the Biblical text.'  Otherwise, people studying the word will be
distracted with results from text that has been added by the publisher.
Perhaps, I should write that up as a feature request.
