Public bug reported:

Occasionally Bible passages can start or end part way through the verse.
Currently it isn't possible to specify this when searching for
Scripture.

Therefore I propose adding a new feature to the 'Advanced' Bible search. If the user specifies a letter after the Verse number, then that letter will indicate how many verse separators in (fullstops/semicolons/?/!/etc) to start or stop. 'a' would be the first, 'b' the second etc.
For 'from' verses, it would start at this point. For 'to' verses it would end at this point.

Examples:
John 3:29-30
29 The bride belongs to the bridegroom. The friend who attends the bridegroom waits and listens for him, and is full of joy when he hears the bridegroom’s voice. That joy is mine, and it is now complete. 30 He must become greater; I must become less.”

John3:29a-30a
The friend who attends the bridegroom waits and listens for him, and is full of joy when he hears the bridegroom’s voice. That joy is mine, and it is now complete. 30 He must become greater;

John 3:29-29a
The bride belongs to the bridegroom.

John 3:29a-29b
The friend who attends the bridegroom waits and listens for him, and is full of joy when he hears the bridegroom’s voice.

John 3:29b-29
That joy is mine, and it is now complete.
