I'm pretty sure "touch and hold" fires "double-click". That's certainly a
configuration option in Windows 8.

Yes. It does seem that the small molecular problem is solved -- the iPad
has the power to do it, and the entire set of Jmol commands is now
implemented. There is the issue of the 3 Mb download, but that's about it.
I don't see that as a make-it-or-break it issue.
Now that I have my hands on an iPad for a few days, I'm going to be doing
some speed testing to see just what it is Safari on the iPad does so
poorly. I find it hard to believe this is a processor issue. I suspect it's
a JavaScript optimization issue.
