Egon,

I see that you previously put a comment/question in the bug database
regarding this.

Currently, the 'saddles' are stored as a torus with some angles. But they
are stored independently and are not actually associated with either atom.

As you suggest, it may be better to split these tori segments in half and
associate each of the pieces with an atom.

We have the same problem with the concave shapes (holes?) that are formed
when the probe sphere sits on top of three atom spheres. We would need to
divide the spherical triangle (?) into three pieces and associate them
with the closest atom.
