Thanks tons guys for the accomodations!  I have one more issue to clear up 
a little-- #2 below.

Although a gloss sound kindof like what we are doing, it doesn't quite 
fit.  To boil down the example:

TR:
<w ID="TRW12345">en</w> <w ID="TRW12346">arXA</w>...

KJV:
<w sync="Bible.TR..John.1.1.TRW12345">In</w> <w 
sync="Bible.TR..John.1.1.TRW12346">the beginning</w>...


This is for what I'm looking.  Something that lets me sync 2 translations 
together, for things like interlinear display, automatically generating 
english glosses for the TR, etc.  We discussed this type of syncing 
mechanism in Dallas, and I was under the impression that various attribute 
names during the lifetime of the OSIS incarnation process were for this.  
I'm happy with target, sync, or whatever.  Also happy with freeform 
sync="TRW12345", rather than a validating reference.  Doesn't matter to 
me, but would like some mechanism to achieve this.

Thanks again for your consideration.

	-Troy.
