Me too. I didn't notice before because I didn't know it should work. I 
was just disappointed that I couldn't navigate with the mouse.

It's indeed my plan to use this for molecular visualization. But also 
for other uses, in particular in teaching. This looks like the first 
usable successor to VPython (http://vpython.org), which is a very nice 
visualization system IF you manage to install it on your computer. I 
haven't succeeded for several years, unfortunately. DrRacket+Pict3D are 
trivial to install, that's a big plus.
