Description
Consider whether it is useful to be able to extract data from SFM files where no Setting.xml file is available.
Bare sfm may be available to others from eBible or OLAC but the TermRenderings.xml and Settings.xml files are not available.
Is it possible and worth the programming effort to being able to create an aligned corpus from such files.
The code could attempt to guess the association between the file name and book by using the versification knowledge.
If that didn't work we could require the user to provide a list of filenames to associate each file with a book.

Research direction
Start by locating the existing SFM extraction and alignment entry points; the issue names Setting.xml, TermRenderings.xml, versification knowledge, and filename-to-book mapping as the relevant concepts. Determine whether bare SFM files can produce an aligned corpus, and define how book associations should work when filenames cannot be inferred.
