Yes. That'd be a great thing to add.

Is the code in jsword-web being used?

It might be better as its own page due to the number of variations which would be nice to offer as standards.

If needed, it'd be possible to individually specify modules to exclude for copyright reasons.

The code I've got isn't particularly quick at the moment (around 80 seconds), since I'm passing each verse through an XSLT
transformation.
