Good points.

Particularly since you can say
  select *.ca & protein

Q: What does RasMol do if you try to do a trace or a cartoon?

I think another problem may be that I have a number of assumptions in the
code that all 4 atoms of the backbone are present.


I will file a bug report and take another look at this when I work on
nucleotide chain backbones & secondary structure graphical
representations.
