367	Error after deleting all atoms	Tom Goddard	Eric Pettersen	"Deleting all atoms causes the C++ code to delete the AtomicStructure, but the Python code never finds out so the model is not closed and errors ensue as shown in the traceback below hovering the mouse over the dead model.

Probably the Python code should control the lifetime of the C++ objects so the Python can clean everything up before the C++ data structures are deleted.  Deleting all atoms should not cause the AtomicStructure to delete itself.  Instead the delete command should check the models that atoms were deleted from and close them if they have no atoms, likewise the delete command should check for empty residues and delete them.
