Understood and agreed... if I think of the nanotox field, however,
they typically do not know how much, where, etc, the coating is
covering the core... and I am under the impression it is actually the
idea here to try to find some distribution to match experimental
data...

Good questions, indeed. People have started doing QM-like things on
this; for obvious reasons with methods like DFT etc. But you still
have to start with some 3D model, and if this can be done with Jmol,
it sounds like a win to me...
