As noted, not all these are handled by osis2mod, but only book and chapter
intros. Someday, I'd like direction to add module and testament intros.

This is a problem. It should not toggle the entire pre-verse div, but only the
titles (title element and its content) and other text (presumably
non-canonical) contained in it. It should not filter the structural tags. The
filtering of those structural tags is the problem mentioned in the thread
"Vertical Whitespace."

I'm still confused. When verse 0 is requested (regardless of what type of intro
it is), Peter notes that it is affected by the headings render filter. I'm
pretty sure that the material in it is not marked pre-verse.
It seems to me that verse 0 is always non-canonical and should be toggled by a
"not canonical" render filter.
