Miguel, the plugins use the CDKEditBus interface for this... Jmol's 
jmol/app/JmolViewer.java provides this interface to plugins...

Hence, I don't quite see why a JmolModelAdapter needs to be implemented...
Could you elaborate?

Same for the iterators... The CDKEditBus provides a getChemFile() method, but 
Jmol currently does not implement that... The patch I sent might properly 
implement it, but have not tested that yet...
