New wishlist Item: Expand Scripture Selections
This is similar to my "panic mode" request for Songs (https://bugs.launchpad.net/openlp/+bug/1674387). When I have a Scripture item that is Live, I would really like to see a +Verse button and a Full Chapter button. The +Verse button would add the next verse to the current Scripture range (if still in the same chapter), and the Full Chapter button would show the entire chapter that's currently selected. It would be important to keep onscreen the (first) verse that's already onscreen.
The use case for this: Things don't always go according to plan, and the video person isn't always given the complete Scripture listing(s) for the service/sermon. For example, a guest pastor yesterday told me he would be speaking on Acts 10:44-48. The actual sermon was based on Acts 10:42-48, and there were many MANY other passages involved from Matthew, Luke, John, Romans, etc. I was looking up passages on-the-fly and sometimes the entire reference wasn't given ahead of time. A +Verse button and a Full Chapter button would have given me much more flexibility in keeping up with unpredictable Scripture references.
