All true and useful. Far simpler from an implementation point of view is to simply use a CIF as the input file. Then the only thing that needs to be done is for an agreement to be made between Miguel and whoever what the datanames are for whatever additional properties the user wants to have (and Jmol can use/display). The user then writes the CIF with those dataitems included and a new Jmoll will read and use them.
