[BioPython] suggestions for Bio.PDB

You're not the first to suggest this - it's already in
the CVS version, also for generating PDB output with PDBIO.

I don't think this would be very useful, it's easy enough to just read in
the file separately.

BTW, I'm soon going to start to implement a parser for the new
PDB XML format. Any suggestions, comments, etc. regarding this
are welcome.

Cheers,
