I think it may be good to support a named set of books and work on getting 
those to work well. Perhaps one or two Bibles, a commentary, readings, 
Strongs and a dictionary.

Maybe a German Bible, an English Bible w/ Strongs, Vines, Strongs and a 
comprehensive, popular whole Bible commentary.

Andy recommends delivering a Bible w/ the application. I think that this may 
be difficult in a WebStart environment as it would need to be packed in a 
jar. I think it may be easier for the application to detect if any are 
installed and if not then to automatically download one. This could be 
internationalized, so that Germans get a German bible, English get English 
and so forth.

This could be a first run initialization routine. Perhaps a wizard that 
offers to optionally download the "supported" set.
