That's correct. I have the code to do keto/enol tautomerism as
described by Sayle's algorithm. However, there are two issues with
this. The first is that many unreasonable tautomers are generated. The
second is that it does not "roundtrip" (starting from any enumerated
tautomer you should get the same set of tautomers, this is not the
case).

If you really want the keto/enol tautomerism as described by Sayle, I
can commit the code tomorrow. I was still working on a better solution
for this problem.
