Hi there.

The main point would be to at least have the information somewhere in
the html/osis output. I do not know what should be the best format.
Right now, the information is present in the original osis format in a
note node located just next to the word it is associated to (I would
have think having the note node included within the <w> node it refers
to instead of next to may be more practical), but not present in any
xml/html output.

It guess the data could be organised as  what is done for the japanese
furigana system indeed.

<ruby><rb>qetiv</rb><rt>kere</rt></ruby>

It should be up to the frontend to choose how to display the
information. For japanese furigana, usually the kana (こ/kere) are
written on top of the kanji (子/qetiv), sometimes next to it in
parenthesis. For the hebrew bible the BHS write the qere in the
margin:

An other way I saw consist in including the the kere in [brackets]
next to what is written.
