This is a port of existing software which has a specific format which enables certain features, such as the ability to jump directly to a particular book, chapter and verse. There are lots of versions available in numerous languages in this format, and though this port is rudimentary it has this feature. GnomeSword has features like reading different versions/translations in parallel, commentaries, dictionaries, maps, etc which all integrate into the same UI and display relevant info according to the current chapter and verse reference. I'm sure a good number of these features will be available in this port, with time. I'd consider that enough justification for a dedicated activity.
