normalization of chemical structures

based on recent discussions, it would be useful to have a method/
class that performs various levels of 'normalization' of a chemical  
structure.

I'm wondering whether others are interested in this, and if so, what  
are the aspects that would be normalized?

Some examples that come to mind:

1) aromaticity perception
2) perform atom typing (using CDK scheme)
3) If SMILES, convert certain fragments to a standard form (I see  
there's a file called fixsmiles.xml in the CDK, but I don't know  
where it's used)
4) hydrogen addition
5) tautomers

Have a look at org.openscience.cdk.tools.Normalizer. This was a first attempt
by me to do something like this. A more elaboreted normalization would be a
valuable tool, I think.
