In general, sounds like a good idea.

Why doesn't the Renderer3D work?

Presumably this renderer requires Java3D. Does the (broken) Renderer3D
also require Java3D?

How well does this renderer work?
Is this the one that you wanted me to incorporate into Jmol?
Is Viewer the only app that currently uses Renderer2D?
