3 years ago I've thought about that and I'm not sure this is the right way to do it. In my option the base token is the pivot, if you need another pivot you can attach the token to another.
This isn't working with v&m because a token with an attached drawing can't be inside that drawing. So the solution you're describing is just trying to find a workaround for that. I'd rather have a solution where the token can be inside of a v&m drawing instead of a more complex workaround for that.

Feature Request.
With vehicles and complicated rigs (eg bailywiki) it's common to use a controller token and link everything to that for moving large vehicles. But this leaves rotation at some strange offset outside the actual vehicle.
This is similar to the vehicles mod which lets you name a token in the scene to use as a pivot - BUT using a token actor is a poor choice as tokens within a vehicle are likely to overlap which risks accidently moving the pivot, or being unable to select a token due to zdepth layering problems. A shape or tile would be better, or even just enter an offset value in X/Y grid spaces.
Bonus points if when targeting a "controller" it can report its position as the pivot location, allowing players to utilize automation in vehicle combat (in systems that support it)
