Perfect. That is precisely what I predicted:
-- Console not affected by settings, everything works.

Here are the results :

3 : load "somefile";/*SPLIT*/;javascript "alert('done')"
4 : load "somefile"; #javascript
#1: WORKS: load command is being run using the applet load thread. Good.
#2: FAILS: load and javascript commands cannot be executed by the same
thread. Should not work, and doesn't.
#3: WORKS: load and javascript commands are executed by different threads so
that they both work. One is executed by the original applet loading thread,
so it has access to files; the other is executed by a user event derived
thread, so it has access to JavaScript. This is done in proper order,
despite the SPLIT business.
#4: FAILS: "#javascript" meaning "run this command using the user event
thread", just like useCommandThread FALSE -- should not work, and doesn't
(because it forces a (rogue) access violation.
Notice that when using useCommandThread, you cannot mix Jmol load and
javascript commands (a common thing to do, of course, to signal, for
example, a completed load script).
We should try callbacks as well. Specifically, a loadStructCallback that
also carries out a JmolScript command. (Not recommended anyway, but it would
be good to know if that absolutely does not work.) In some of these cases,
this might hang the browser.
