"Cheat sheets" for morphology

I would like a new resource type in Logos - a "cheat sheet" - which would initially contain simple morphology tables. These would contain:
-word class (pronoun, noun, verb ...)
-morphology class
-example: complete morphology table with root/stem/affix identified as appropriate
Think of it as an even more concise version of Putnam, Frederic Clarke. Hebrew Bible Insert: A Student’s Guide to the Syntax of Biblical Hebrew. Quakertown, PA: Stylus Publishing, 2002. and Chapman, Benjamin, and Gary Steven Shogren. Greek New Testament Insert. 2nd ed., revised. Quakertown, PA: Stylus Publishing, 1994.
This should be available for the languages which we have ancient texts texts for, i.e. at least:
-Aramaic
-Coptic
-Geez
-Gothic
-Greek
-Hebrew
-Latin
-Syriac
-Ugaritic
In addition, there should be an English verb complete conjugation in support of those whose English grammar is a bit weak.
This new library type should also (eventually) be used for other miscellaneous tables such as:
-the various names for books of the Bible e.g. Paralipoménōn (think especially names in Jewish and LXX Bibles as well as alternate numberings such as 1 Kings, 2 Kings, 3 Kings, 4 Kings)
-the various abbreviations for books of the Bible, highlighting those currently in use in the current style guides . . .
I'd like to see some user generated input curated by Logos, convert to Logos stylistic standards, and ultimately included as references.
