Again, my desire is that users confronted with multiple Jmols should 
not have to think about which one to rotate to maintain alignment. 
Moving any one should move all of them.

A "Synchronize checkbox" is an intuitive way to turn off sync when 
one wishes to move one molecule relative to another.

While I have, in the past, used the one master, one slave mode with 
Chime, I did that only because I needed to keep MolSlides simple (no 
checkboxes). In the Jmol Tutorials, we can have a more intuitive 
interface with the checkbox.

So yes, please think about how to "lock" all Jmols. I thought maybe 
the problem is that if all are syncMouse senders, then when one 
receives moveto's from another, it may start a postivie feedback 
loop, sending the same movements back to the sender. ??? Maybe there 
needs to be some way to suppress such feedback?
