Bob, thank you very much for the explanations. It is much clearer now.
You havn't mentioned yet 'set pickingStyle' which additionally modifies
the behaviour.
For example with 'set picking dragSelected', "z-shift" and "rotate"
don't work together with 'set pickingStyle drag select'. Instead
"shift-drag" and "alt-drag" start a selection rubberband. With 'set
pickingStyle select toggle', "z-shift" and "rotate" do work.
Considering all the information I gathered so far, the following three
option sets are more or less suitable for moving around selected atoms
independent of their connectivity in Jmol 14.3.13:
==== Option Set 1 ================
set allowMoveAtoms on;
set allowRotateSelected on;
set picking dragSelected;
set pickingStyle select toggle;
set dragSelected off;
---- Mouse Behaviour Option Set 1 ---
x/y-shift selected: drag (any atom)
z-shift selected: shift-drag (any atom)
rotate selected: alt-drag (any atom)
select single atom: [not available]
deselect single atom: [not available]
select multiple atoms: [not available]
deselect multiple atoms: [not available]
==== Option Set 2 ================
set allowMoveAtoms on;
set allowRotateSelected on;
set picking dragSelected;
set pickingStyle select drag;
set dragSelected off;
---- Mouse Behaviour Option Set 2 ---
x/y-shift selected: drag (any atom)
z-shift selected: [not available]
rotate selected: [not available]
select single atom: shift-drag (around unselected atom),
alt-drag (around atom)
deselect single atom: shift-drag (around selected atoms)
select multiple atoms: shift-drag (around unselected atoms),
alt-drag (around atoms)
deselect multiple atoms: shift-drag (around selected atoms)
==== Option Set 3 ================
set allowMoveAtoms on;
set allowRotateSelected on;
set picking atom;
set pickingStyle select toggle;
set dragSelected on;
---- Mouse Behaviour Option Set 3 ---
x/y-shift selected: shift-alt-drag (anywhere)
z-shift selected: [not available]
rotate selected: alt-drag (anywhere)
select single atom: click (unselected atom),
double-click (atom, others are deselected)
deselect single atom: click (selected atom)
select multiple atoms: [not available]
deselect multiple atoms: [not available]
==================================
Set 1 totally disables mouse-based selection changes and enables all
three movement types (x/y-shift, z-shift, rotate).
Set 2 enables mouse-based single/multiple atom selection changes and
enables only one movement type (x/y-shift).
Set 3 enables mouse-based single atom selection changes and enables two
movement types (x/y-shift, rotate).

Rolf
