um um... not to blow your bubble... but... have you looked at zone_desk_flip_by,
zone_desk_flip_to, zone_desk_linear_flip_by, zone_desk_linear_flip_to. these do
just the same - but are a fair bit simpler :) all you need is the bit where via
ipc you can spawn an action - you only need 2 strings passed to e for that :)
