Description

Say you have a C3 symmetric molecule. If user selects 1 bond it would be nice to easily fetch 'symmetrically equivalent' bonds (e.g. in the other subunit).

We could achieve this by rotating a molecule about its symmetry axis and seeing if there is a bond connecting two of the equivalent elements in the exact same position.

Research direction

No files, tests, or entry points are named. Start by surveying the R molecular-structure classes and any existing symmetry or bond APIs, then clarify the expected behavior for a selected bond in a C3-symmetric molecule; done should include a defined API and coverage for the equivalent-bond result.
