Hamish, > Regardless, it would be nice to fix 'v.distance upload=dist,to_along'
Some time ago I asked on GRASS user ml about to_along and to_angle in v.distance (see below), because I don't understand how they work, and documenation is lacking here. You seem to know more. If you can shed some light on this please do, and I'll update docs.
