draw pointgroup is very special -- it creates a whole set of objects. I
don't think "scale" is an appropriate keyword, since you have points and
lines and planes and such. Jmol wouldn't know what to do with that scale.
So you have to go with what it gives you. You could hack it by saving the
state, then going in with a text editor and adding the scale to the various
DRAW commands that represent all the different elements. Not saying that's
a solution....
