Thanks for the pointers. I shall shamelessly filch a few of these ideas for the beta version that our authors will see. Of course, the objective here is slightly different from many of the excellent sites that use Jmol and are aimed at end-users. In this toolkit we're trying to provide tools that individual authors can use to create the user-friendly pages that they want the end-users to see. Having said which, it's not at all a bad idea to take some of the options that keep appearing on pages like yours and Alan's, and making them available as "standard widgets" in the toolkit; authors could select the ones they want and add them to the page they are generating with a single click.
