[phenixbb] covalently linked ligand

[Pavel Afonine]

Hi Nigel,

can we do it as part of a default phenix.refine, as well as 
phenix.metal_coordination? I see a growing pressure to do this... I 
think there is more harm not doing this at all then doing this always 
but not very optimally.

Let's keep this in mind and discuss once we have a chance.
