I don't know if I'm getting him right or not but the way I understand it is 
he wants an anchor in POV space where two objects meet, a bit like if you 
stick a piece of blue tack to a table and then pull, strethc and twist it 
(as long as you don't pull too hard), the blue tack will stay stuck to the 
table in exactly the same spot, any action you perform on the blue tack 
will have no resulting effect on the table but the table and the blue tack 
will continue to be connected at the same point and covering the same area 
of the table.
