Request: Structure Initialization Tool

an important fix to keep in mind if you're looking in to this.
its not just how long tweak takes. if there are other structures on the protein, tweak can't complete its mission. the other structures stay in a fixed location and hold the protein in place. you can't really use the tweak tool unless there is an abundance of slack in the loops that connect to the tweaked structure (assuming those loops don't get all twisted and knotted).
i see no reason why the whole protein can't move along with the tweak. if all the other structures are converted to loop then it will perform this way (clumsily).
you can imagine how self defeating it is to remove all your other structures so that you can tweak just one structure.
this fix may be more important than the speed of the tweak, and it might be easier to implement.
