Sorry, but I am not entirely understanding you. First, this is not
really my concern. It would however, I am quite sure, be the concern of
the WMF technical people. I discussed Jmol severel years ago with Tim
Starling before he moved to Sydney from here in Melbourne. He was very
concerned about security for use of the Jmol extension on wikipedia.
Second, I think that the more we make Jmol files just like other files
such as images, the easier and better it will be.
On quality, I think that is a different and general concern. We try to
not use poor quality images, so we would try to use only good quality
Jmol data files. I am happy that we restrict the type of jmol files to a
small number, perhaps initially only *.pdb files. Of course we would
have to add file extensions for jmol files to the upload process anyway,
so we would not need to add all possible file extensions.
Am I missing your point? If so I apologise.
