It could be.  There is a "DRCgb" GenBook that contains the Douay-Rheims, 
Challoner Revision.  But, really, all books could be GenBooks--I don't 
know that we want to go down that path of moving all book types to the 
GenBook driver.  And with the current implementation, it's horribly 
slow.  On the other hand, it simplifies OSIS compliant import/export 
quite a bit.

If you're thinking that we should ship the Apocrpha as a separate book, 
and that it should be a GenBook, that would be a bad idea.  Apocrypha 
are part of Bibles, not separate works.
