Excellent! You keep amaze me... I'll compile it in a moment...

Those surfaces or often used to plot the charge density on... and this is how 
chemistry students are thought what molecules look like... it thus serves a 
big educational need... and educational website often make use of applets...

In addition, these feature show the Jmol website visitors what Jmol can do, 
and interest people in working with the Jmol code base itself... Keep in mind 
that since you can do molecular surfaces now, other types of surfaces can be
done too... I suggest you send a screenshot to jmol-users@ and -developers@
and ask what interest people have rendering of molecular and other surfaces...

Obviously, enzyme strands etc can now be done too more easily I expect... Is 
that right?

About you other question on how large the probe atom should be... making it 
customizable later should not be that big a problem, and people will ask 
about it if they really need it, so a fixed 1.2 Angstrom is fine with me...
