I'm still at a loss here. I've tried changing things to where I use a SWKey 
and use setText() there and called setPersist(true) and use that to set the 
module key. All to no avail. getKeyText(); is consistently returning an empty 
string the first time it gets called for a module. The second time it works, 
consistently. Bible texts and commentaries work correctly, genbooks that use 
almost identical code work correctly. I'm not certain what's different about 
lexicons that it doesn't work consistently.
