This is one of the changes between TW and TW5 -- the theory that tiddlers should contain little bits of information rather than larger chunks of data sectioned into accessible bits. I think the latter approach more closely reflects how most people would prefer to work, but what can you do?
Anyway, once the text is populated, it should be fairly easy to add some way to associates notes with each verse (maybe like sticky notes). This will allow a person to personalize their text similar to how you would in a dead-tree book.
