This might be Troy's idea of the first step towards that. Maybe he'll
chime in on that topic. Or maybe he doesn't know yet either. :)

Which LXX is that though? Rahlf's, which itself has two versions each of
Joshua, Judges, Tobit, Susanna, Daniel, and Bel & the Dragon? Bibles with
multiple books of the same name pose an additional problem that might need
consideration, unless we do something like LXX and LXX2. (The Vulgate,
with two versions of the Psalms, and the NRSVA, with two versions of
Esther, also present this challenge.)
