BWS wishes

First of all, I must say that the standard reports have improved greatly since Beta 1.  However, I do have a few issues.

I was looking at our lesson for next week (Amos 5) and tried to do a BWS on "Bethel".  When I do this from the NRSV, it gives me the Lemma window and NRSV Translation window.  The rest of the sections are greyed out except for Textual Searches which says 0 hits in 0 verses.

So I tried it from LHI.  It gives me three Lemma options - the prefixed preposition, Beth, and El.  While there is more than a little legitimacy to this, it doesn't exactly let me look for what I wanted.  When I ran a BWS on Beth, all the sections worked, but not on the compound word.

In addition, I would like it if the BWS report could include more information from Ancient Manuscripts.  Hebrew only looks at biblical references for me, and I have the Hebrew/Cananite Inscriptions.  Greek doesn't include the Pseudepigrapha or the Illiad.

By the way, all the Ugaritic texts are listed as type:Monograph instead of Ancient Manuscript.  I personally would love to see results from this included in BWS as well.
