Not to dis MCDL but RDKit seems to be more flexible (for example it can generate coordinates for any part of the structure while MCDL can only do that for a terminal superatom or the whole structure) and the results appear to be more visually appealing.

I hope OB will not reject or modify user-supplied information just because it happens to put a stereo bond in a ring?
