Leslie, Well it seems a mis-spoke. I tried to write a script which does what you layed out, but it turns out that the current the API functions for moving moleculs don't have quite enough power to do this efficiently (even in version 0.73). My time is probably better spent refining "rotate" and "translate" than describing some kind of elaborate work-around which would enable you to do this right now. Can we revisit this in a month or two?
Electrostatic surfaces are also a few months away still, unless someone can provide me with source code for a drop-in PB solver.
