Troy,

milestoneSe (or is it milestoneSE) is to match up a pair of milestones.

<div>
   <verse osisID="X.1.2">kdkd <qStart milestoneSE="123"/> dkd kd</verse>
   <verse osisID="X.1.3"> dkjksdjf <qEnd milestoneSE="123"/> adkjf
</verse>
</div>

splitID is to indicate that an element is a part of a set of elements
that all have the same value for splitID when an element must be split
into pieces because it is deferring to an other element from an
overlapping hierarchy.  As in the following.

<q type="blockQuote">
	<lg>
		<l>
			<verse osisID="Ps.1.1" splitID="Ps.1.1">Happy
are those</verse>
		</l>
		<l>
			<verse osisID="Ps.1.1" splitID="Ps.1.1">who
reject the advice of evil people,</verse>
		</l>
		<l>
			<verse osisID="Ps.1.1" splitID="Ps.1.1">who do
not follow the example of sinners</verse>
		</l>
		<l>
			<verse osisID="Ps.1.1" splitID="Ps.1.1">or join
those who have no use for God.</verse>
		</l>
		<l>
			<verse osisID="Ps.1.2" splitID="Ps.1.2">Instead,
they find joy in obeying the Law of the <divineName
type="yhwh">LORD</divineName>,</verse>
		</l>
		<l>
			<verse osisID="Ps.1.2" splitID="Ps.1.2">and they
study it day and night.</verse>
		</l>
		<l>
			<verse osisID="Ps.1.3" splitID="Ps.1.3">
				<note type="crossReference"
osisRef="Ps.1.3-Ps.1.3">
					<note type="link">
						<reference
osisRef="Jer.17.8"/>
					</note>
				</note> They are like trees that grow
beside a stream,</verse>
		</l>
		<l>
			<verse osisID="Ps.1.3" splitID="Ps.1.3">that
bear fruit at the right time,</verse>
		</l>
		<l>
			<verse osisID="Ps.1.3" splitID="Ps.1.3">and
whose leaves do not dry up.</verse>
		</l>
		<l>
			<verse osisID="Ps.1.3" splitID="Ps.1.3">They
succeed in everything they do.</verse>
		</l>
	</lg>
</q>
