Alright, I will look into some other ways to accomplish what I'm trying
to do using the suggestions both of you have provided. I will go ahead
and remove the proposal from the wiki since it's not a very good idea to
implement.
Thank you very much for the consideration though! :)

My idea was to make it easier to get this information (from an LSL
standpoint) directly where it's called. So you could have something like
this:
list objDetails = osGetObjectNameDetails([Chair], OBJECT_NAME |
OBJECT_POS);
string objName = llList2String(objDetails, 0);
vector objPos =
It *always* would need to scan the entire region contents because
OpenSimulator lacks the ability to do spatial queries in any way other than
a linear search.
Sorry but I don't see the benefit of having the sim developers need to
maintain extra complexity so your script can have a few less lines
There are tools in SL that are able to gather this information,
through a combination of llGetObjectDetails and llSensor and some
others. This includes the rotation and scaling as well as the kind
of object, etc. Builder's tools do this regularly to place red dot
prim spheres at the corners of the
One thing that llGetObject detail is missing is to get the prim size. so
if this command get add. i hope the add the object size too.

Getting an object's size would be a really nice addition; but going by
how llGetScale() functions I believe it would be limited to getting just
the root prim's size rather than overall size if I'm thinking about this
correctly.

Some initial thoughts
Why not a function that returns a uuid for a name? Actually this could be
done with a sensor now. No need to duplicate llGetObjectDetails
functionality, just call it once you get the uuid.
Such a function would need to scan every object in the region for a name
match,
I expected the OSSL works also with UUID you get from sensor.
llGetObject details works very good for me, except am misisng the object
size.
I have a workaround for that. But a command that need to scan the whole
sim to get something. I agree with dahlia, bad idea.
