The idea of FEW is to aid you in setup of _relative_ alchemical free
energy calculations (as well as some end-points methods). Setup of
absolute transformation is trivial at this stage as the manual shows.
The real issue there is how to set up restraints when sampling in
inhomogeneous environments and standard state correction.
