Recognize Bible References After Common Terms

When listing Scripture references, Logos automatically tags all the ones that follow the book of the Bible. However, if any text is inserted in the list, subsequent references are not tagged. For example, the first two verses in this string would be tagged but unfortunately not the third: Judg. 17:6; 21:25; cf. 18:1. It would be great if all three were tagged.
Perhaps Logos could have a list of commonly used terms that would be ignored when the automation searches for references to tag. For instance, the following terms could be ignored: cf, cp, ie, eg, and, or, but, if, when, see also, et al, nb, ibid, id, versus, vs, v, vv. More could be added to the list, perhaps even by allowing users to save a list of strings that would be ignored.
All of these are super common occurrences, and it'd be helpful if we didn't have to keep repeating the Bible book title with every reference.

Just realized this should probably have been in the Faithlife RefTagger section.0
