In the other filters, like our OSIS filter, we subclass Sword's OSIS filter and 
only handle the changes we  need to make ourselves. The rest is done by the 
original filter. I think that's a good approach.

Bauplan des Lebens - längst im Gen entdeckt!
Die Wissenschaft ist stolz: Sie hat's gecheckt.
Nun ist der Bauplan als Beweis beliebt,
dass es den Architekten gar nicht gibt.
