[sword-devel] Verses that are [partly] a title ....

[Greg Hellings]

If that happens then it becomes a filter and front end issue. But OSIS and
the engine would be correct, and you should target that, then file bugs
with such places where they render it improperly to allow each application
to determine whether its rendering is proper.

Compare your fear of misplaced verses with current psalm titles in BD which
sometimes leave orphaned verse numbers even when the title is properly
nested.

Greg's suggestion had already been considered, but surely that would lead to
the following visual effect in front-ends?

Verse 1 tag on a line of its own ("widowed")
The title text on its own line.
A blank line for the paragraph element.
The rest of the text for verse 1.
The rest of the Psalm....

IMHO, the unacceptable aspect here would be the widowed verse tag.

In effect the descriptive title would have been made to function as a
mid-verse title, albeit without any normal verse text preceding it.

PS. The words 'widowed' and 'orphaned' are borrowed from typographical
terminology.
btw. There are already too many modules in which there are widowed verse
tags in many places.
And none of them are due to the underlying issue in this thread. Just poorly
developed modules.
