I don't yet have an example of getting and modifying selection - I'll add one
soon. But both the workflow and input generator scripts can get the molecule
CJSON, which now includes selected atoms.

The other piece that should come soon is a feature for Avo2 that will allow
users to look at a set of known GitHub repositories to install and update new
features (e.g., like Atom or Eclipse or lots of other editors). So you could,
e.g. update the Gaussian generator and let others use it before the next
official release.
