Are there tags/XML constructions that can be added around pronouns or inflected verbs that indicate that the subject is a member of the Trinity (e.g. in the event you were performing a search about the attributes of God or want to toggle capitalization in a given language to make it more obvious who the "He" is?)?

I believe the 1662 Book of Common Prayer falls under the same restrictions as the KJV - in the UK, the rights are owned by the Crown, but everywhere else, it seems to be considered Public Domain... is it cool to markup a copy in OSIS for creating a Sword module? Or only if it isn't distributed in the UK?
