Yes, I've understood that, and it's a great advantage to have reduced 
downloads adjusted to needs. It can, however, be disconcerting that 
the first "cartoon" (or other, similarly) command will have a delay.

Just a reflection:
 I won't request a way to force loading of certain modules (I know 
that calling JmolApplet.jar will load everything, but I prefer the 
modular variety), but we have to think of ways for the webpage author 
for pre-loading the module which will be needed later,  e.g. while 
the user is reading the entry page. The user may be prepared for an 
initial delay, for hardly for one when he clicks on a button.
I did something similar yesterday by including, in a homepage that 
doesn't need to show models, a "Wait until Jmol is ready" message 
above a small applet that only does an echo "Jmol is ready". 
Meanwhile, the user can go on reading the presentation, and when the 
"reay" is shown, move to the first page with real content.
