As I understand it, the problem you are trying to solve is that
unconnected atoms are not visible with 'cpk off; wireframe on'

There is currently no mechanism to represent these atoms.

Q: how do other packages deal with this?


RasMol 2.6 and Chime leave unbonded atoms invisible when only the wireframe display is on. I agree that this is undesirable. In Protein Explorer, I show such atoms as small-diameter spacefills in certain situations. I agree that some sort of crosses sounds like a good idea for Jmol because spacefill (as a default) takes up too much visual space and becomes obscuring.
