I'm not sure with what you say. It's not the sword engine which is 
broken, all my catholic module use the DAN tag for the usfm file. If not 
the convertion to osis will not convert well the books id.
In the Catholic versification, DAN  contains 14 chapters.
If you wish to use an other versification with the DC you need to split 
then the files, but not for the Catholic. You can use NRSVA or KJVA or 
German.
