[sword-devel] Unaccounted for modules (module management)

The JSword book installer (module manager) has the nice feature that it uses
a separate tab, one for each repository, and one for Installed modules.

Notwithstanding, there is an opportunity for an enhancement feature. Namely
to provide an extra tab called "Unaccounted for modules".  

What do I mean?  This tab would list only those installed modules that are
not present in any of the specified repositories. Should be simple enough to
code by using set theory.

Why would this be useful?

(a) it would list modules installed from local sources (or disabled
repositories).
(b) it would also list modules previously installed but subsequently removed
from repositories (for whatever reason)

This could prompt users to remove any installed modules that are no longer
supported by CrossWire or other recognized repositories.
