[osis-core] Identification of deutero-canonical material

[Patrick Durusau]

Chris,

The notes from Dallas indicate:

> global "editions" attribute = "NMTOKENS" for suppression/inclusion of
> portions of texts. But required if used to be used
> consistently. Default behavior, if marked, make appropriate choice,
> default is to include or if not instructions about the NMTOKEN,
> include.

Does that solve the problem of \dc, \fdc, and \xdc?

BTW, is the function of \xdc to allow removal of references that 
otherwise occur in a work when deutero-canonical material is removed?

Hope you are having a great day!
