I played with Snapdragons a bit. Nice tool, but it appears to have some bugs. When I set the limiting magnitude to a very large value, like 1000, I got nonsensical behavior (hangs, or no selected stars, depending on the exact value). This pull request has some suggested changes. Certainly I don't understand the code that well, so consider it all carefully! Also ignore the configuration changes in the beginning.

Sorry for the delay, I'm travelling at the moment

I'll take a proper look into it when I'm back, but for now, I'm not surprised there's issues with very faint magnitude limits as it's only really been tested to 20th mag. A very faint magnitude limit may result in you generating hundreds of billions of stars, so you may run into memory issues if nothing else.

The GRVS cut shouldn't be in the master version, so thanks for spotting that!

I'm going to rework the interpolation routine shortly anyway when upgrading to a newer set of isochrones, but I'll also go through this when I'm back
