Description

The UNK residue is rather meaningless. Is there a way we could enforce (at the SmallMoleculeComponent) both a warning & some kind of convenience method to override the residue name?

Research direction

Start at SmallMoleculeComponent and trace the form-SDF construction path. Define the warning and the convenience method for overriding the residue name, then verify that building an SDF no longer silently uses an unhelpful UNK residue name.
