Yeah you're right, unfortunately I don't remember ever seeing (or writing) any 
documentation on linking.

The nearest thing may be to read the unit tests in 
Scenes/Tests/SceneObjectLinkingTests.cs in the OpenSim.Region.Framework.Tests 
project.  This might give you some sense of how linking/delinking is actually 
done at the logical layer (as opposed to the viewer or scripting layer). 
However, I'm not sure if the tests are extensive enough to help much.
