Hi developers,

I would like to know if it would be possible to make the JSmol 
application main menu customizable on the fly (like the popup menu) and 
ideally also the icon toolbar with customized icons?

Since 'Java webstart' supposedly will be the only alternative to get the 
Java version of JSmol running from the Web after (some of) the major 
browsers have dropped the Java plugins, it would be helpful to have also 
more control over the appearance and functionality of the application.
And since there is still a large performance difference between the 
Javascript and Java versions of JSmol (that will persist presumably 
longer than half a year) the Javascript version cannot fully replace the 
Java version (yet) if you have to deal for example with all available 
PDB structures.
I am not sure how I could transfer most of the functionality of the 
'Jena3D Viewer' into the JSmol application without an integrated browser 
engine, but I guess I might have to try at least to transfer some of the 
functionality.

Another use case for a customizable application would be if someone 
(like me) would like to use the JSmol application with a different focus 
than molecular structures or enhance for example the modelkit 
functionality or the application functionality in general.

Regards,
Rolf
