I'm not sure what osConsoleCommand does. It may very well be that it's 
not doing the right thing for the link-region command.
If you submit a bug report with the involved scripts, I can take a look.

This is not correct. You don't need to know the real coordinates *ever* 
-- I do this setup all the time, including for testing the new 
communication mechanisms we're working on. You are doing something wrong.
