Description

Currently, if the current scripture reference is from a book not part of a project, Interlinearizer simply displays an error message. I think there are three options here:

  1. Set the scripture reference to a book that the project does have
  2. Allow users to manage books with a button that opens the book manager, like Scripture Editor does: Image
  3. Display a message that directs users to the manager through the scripture editor

I'm currently leaning towards 3. I think 2 is the weakest option because it feels like unnecessary plumbing, but I think it's still a defensible choice.

Research direction

Start by reproducing the error when the current scripture reference is outside the project's books, then inspect the existing Interlinearizer error handling and the Scripture Editor's book-manager flow. Confirm which of the three proposed behaviors is selected before changing the UI; done means a reference outside the project no longer leaves the user at an unhelpful error.
