Super! Do you know if the other filters need to be modified to show all 
upper case or small caps?
(I had to change JSword to show all uppercase, since it could not do 
small-caps)

I'm not sure what the problem is?
There are two types for notes in this version of the kjv: type="study" 
and type="x-strongsMarkup"
The former were x-StudyNote. I changed it because, "study" is a 
predefined note type.
x-strongsMarkup has not changed. Currently, they are shown by Sword. In 
the final build of the module, I'll remove them, along with the 
<milestone type="x-strongsMarkup"/>, but keep them under svn.

The <divineName elements have a type when I can know for sure where the 
word came from. In the case of Jehovah, it is from yhwh, but LORD has 
more than one origin, and while nearly every last one is from yhwh, it 
is not certain without analysis. So I left these without a type.

Does this help?

Thanks,
    DM
