This could be done. It would be more consistent to have halos start as the color of the atom. But more generally, should there be
select carbon halo on color halo red select oxygen halo 2.0 color halo green just like wireframe or dots? And if so, then how does this relate to "set display selected" which would also(?) use halos. My thought is that "set display selected" could just continue to use standard halos, while halo on/off would be an independent beast. Or is it important to have the colors upon selection? Ah, I know. "set display selected" could use the default halo color unless atom halo colors had been assigned or the default halo color had been set to "NONE". This way it is entirely backward compatible (you couldn't set the halo color) Right now we have: color selectionHalo red I think the proposal here is to add: color selectionHalo NONE which makes it the underlying color of the atom's halo, if defined, or atom if not. and halos on/off/diameter color halos ..... which would be entirely independent things, defaulting to atom color but assignable.
