Hi,
  I've been wanting to come up with a better solution for this
particular problem since this is something one would ideally want
to do very easily. A first stopgap measure would be to do something
with a simple script that replicates representations from one molecule
to the next, which shouldn't be too hard to write. That would allow it
to be done with the existing VMD versions people have installed. It would
definitely be better if this was a core feature and was integrated nicely
into the GUI of course. I'll see what I can do.
