Title:
  No way of modifying bible metadata or changing permissions that are
  displayed

Status in OpenLP - Worship Presentation Software:
  In Progress

Bug description:
  When importing a Bible, OpenLP asks for name/copyright/permission
  information. It isn't obvious what will happen to this at time, and if
  for example you were to type in the whole caboodle of NIV copyright
  information it looks incredibly ugly and truncated on the single line
  that it displays on.

  Therefore the ability to edit this meta data later is required to fine
  tune it.

  In addition many Bibles only require you to show the official
  abbreviation for that Bible, e.g. from
  http://www.zondervan.com/Cultures/en-
  US/Company/Policy/Rights/NIV.htm?QueryStringSite=Zondervan

  When quotations from the NIV, TNIV, NIrV texts are used in such non-
  commercial media as church bulletins, orders of service, bulletin
  boards, posters not offered for sale, overhead projection
  transparencies not offered for sale, or similar media used in the
  course of religious instruction or services at a place of worship or
  other religious assembly, the following notice may be used at the end
  of each quotation: (NIV, TNIV, NIrV).

  So the option to only show the Bible name would be useful and not
  display the copyright information.

  Finally if you do manage to enter the relevant information, then it
  needs to strip trailing spaces so (NIV) is shown rather than (NIV ).
