Since I've received no reply, I am resending this to both user and developers
list.
I don't feel restricting aromaticity perception only to max two fused rings
will be very useful. It will break lot of old code. If there is no workaround
I would suggest again to retain both old and new aromaticity detectors in
place.

Best regards,
Nina
