Description
When I displayed the ESV module in Xiphos, and unticked Headings in Module Options, some of the titles remained showing.
The most glaring examples are in the Song of Solomon.
e.g. Chapter 6
verse 2 shows, Together in the Garden of Love
verse 4 shows, Solomon and His Bride Delight in Each Other
These are not the only instances.

This is more likely a SWORD API issue.
All the unexpectedly displayed headings are actually mid-verse titles.
The same effect was observed with the similar ESV_THE module from Tyndale House.
The effect can also be observed by using diatheke with the ThML output filter.
i.e. Not specifying the option_filter to include headings.
I will attach a diff file to record the 17 locations where this occurs with diatheke.
WimMerge generated diff file comparing plain and ThML output formats of diatheke for the ESV_THE module from Tyndale House.
It's a SWORD API issue - how it treats mid-verse titles.
The erratic behaviour didn't occur when this chapter was displayed in PocketSword.
Maybe it's not wholly a module issue, but partly related to how Xiphos works?
Needs comparing with further SWORD based front-end apps.
