osisID attributes may contain a list.  The way to denote a bridge would be 
to list all included verses.  Also, sID & eID need not match the osisID, 
they must simply match each other, so a valid way of expressing your start 
tag would be: <verse sID="Gen.1.6" osisID="Gen.1.6 Gen.1.7"/>

I'm sure we'll get better examples into the manual eventually.  A lot of 
these things actually have been decided and defined, just not explained.
