The code wraps the entire verse text in <a
href=...></a> to make it clickable. Then the problem
becomes that internal linkages in the module markup also using
<a href=...></a> create an HTML inconsistency of the
form <a href=...> some stuff here <a
href=...>module-internal link here</a> other stuff at the
end</a>. The result is that "some stuff here" is clickable
but "other stuff at the end" is not. And frankly it's just on the
good graces of the HTML interpreter that any of the links work at
all, because it's a real inconsistency due to the fact that
<a></a> does not nest -- it would be fair, if
unfortunate, for the HTML handling to just say "hm, <a
href>...and then <a href>? who are you kidding, forget
it."<br>
<br>
This wasn't noticed until long after the feature, if you can call
it that, was in live usage, and tweaking the code to become
sensitive to the internal linkages within the text hasn't been
seen as worth the trouble.<br>
