It's not an option - and I would hesitant to add it as it's "at best
ambiguous" (quoting Brecher's IUPAC :-)). Symyx/Accelrys/BioVia Draw like
to hide the hydrogens by default which is where I think the acceptability
crept in from. You right that for queries there's a use-case, but the
depiction isn't really set up for rendering queries.

Anyways if you want to do it just add a helper routine to sets the implicit
hydrogen counts to 0, for non aromatics you can put them

C1C[N]CN([H])C1

The radicals there are specific to the WebApp so you would just get a plain
N - I may actually make than option as I don't like it (Noel Talked me into
it).

Other option You can also use the old *BasicAtomGenerator* which never puts
hydrogens on anything...
