Hi,

One thing I think could be improved in CDK is the handling/description of 
post-processing after reading in chemical structures from different formats. 
One way would be to device what steps need to be taken in CDK depending on 
choice of input format, but an even better way would be to have a method 
standardize(IAtomContainer) that would, regardless of previous file 
reading/formats, result in the same chemical representation with atom types and 
aromaticity detected etc. (possibly there is a need for multiple 
standardize(..) methods for different use cases). As it is now I sometimes find 
myself in situations when the result I get depend on the order I invoke the cdk 
functionality, which is not always apparent or easy to debug.

Cheers,

/Ola
