[sword-devel] Alternative method to mark translation changes

In the KJV module, there are 17 occurences of the alternative method to mark
translation changes.
<seg subType="x-added" type="x-transChange">...</seg>This alternative method
is a hack which seems to be required when the transChange text is within a
<w> container.
I assume that OSIS does not permit the recommended
<transChange>...</transChange> container element in such circumstances.

Xiphos 3.1.3 displays these without italics. This is a bug.

I have also observed that diatheke with RTF output_format does the same, so
perhaps the bug is in the SWORD API.

I have also reported the bug in the Xiphos tracker. ID=3103244.
