But the edit icon also works on the bible and not on the selected 
item(s). I am not saying that the current situation is perfect, but I do 
not see any better (!) solution. Moving this functionality away will 
cause more confusion. At least the solutions a) to move this to the 
settings and b) to move this to the edit dialog do not convince me! Also 
this seems to be the nicest solution, anything else seems to make things 
cluttered.

Another things:
I think that the analogy is wrong. The delete icon in the songs media 
manager deletes the selected song. The delete icon in the bible manager 
deletes the bible. I cannot imagine that any user expects the verse to 
be deleted. It is a DELETE button and not a CLEAR-the-list-button (and 
as said before, I cannot imagine that a user wants to delete a verse 
from the bible).

Title:
  Bible delete button is too accessible

Status in OpenLP - Worship Presentation Software:
  Opinion

Bug description:
  The ability to edit Bible meta-data and delete Bibles was recently
  added to the Bible plugin. There is now a "Delete the selected Bible"
  on the Bible plugin toolbar. I think this is far too
  accessible/visible for what is a non-reversible (no "undo") and
  therefore "dangerous" operation. Would be much safer if moved to
  inside the "Edit Bible" dialog.
