As delete-residue-with-altconf no longer exists,

I must say that I was unaware of the disappearance of delete-residue-with-altconfs. I don't remember it. Removing it does seem a retrograde step.

I use
delete-residue-with-full-spec instead, which requires an imodel.
Unfortunately, residues-with-alt-confs does not return the imodel.

I can, of course, assume that imodel = 1, which is true for the
majority of the cases,

It is true for almost all crystallographic models.

Most of the functions which take atom or residue descriptor arguments ignore the model. This is historical laziness/unforesightedness/simplification (call it what you will).

but it is still an uneducated guess. My
question is: what is the easiest way to get imodel in this context?


Not possible AFAICS, sadly.  even active-residue ignores the model.

Now that I am more NMR-ified, this may well change. This will mean quite a bit of change to the API. (I am OK with API changes until version 1.0 (then stability restraints will be instated)).

Paul.
