I'm wondering why this was changed. Does the optimum elasticity change with 
resolution, map quality, or another experimental limitation? Or does it more of 
a user preference?

Over the years, I've gotten used to being able to drag a loop that is out of 
density into density and watch as it magically sorts itself into the (often) 
proper conformation in less time that I could build it myself. I miss this 
behavior and would like COOT to, again, do such things for me. (OK, that's a 
lazy approach, but there's always undo, so it's often worth a try).

I've tried various settings of refinement_drag_elasticity and I need to lower 
it to 0.5 or so before any semblance of earlier behavior appears.
