Very good question. I don't know the new features in detail either. My vote 
would be to focus on UI and porting work now.

What do you mean by "abandoned"? BibleTime does honor 
the "MinimumSwordVersion", but once you compile with 1.5.10, you should be 
able to use modules which require that. Or did I not get your point?
