While this subject may have far-reaching consequencies the question
about the config entry is quite simple. Actually the purpose of that
entry is to give information about the semantics categories. I just
think that it could as well include all our semantic categories. It
wouldn't require any code changes but would make the situation more
clear.

BibleTime already implements "semantic categories" and "technical
categories" at the same time, so your claim of that making very little
sense is not correct.

The subject really is interesting but is not very important right now
practically, I don't mind leaving things as they are.
