No worries, although I think it was more verbose than what Adam wanted :)

This is the only suggestion I tried, because it seemed the easiest to
implement, and so far it looks like it is working. thank you very much.

is this what you want ?

inputs:
a 2d pivot point
a 2d reference point
a rotation slider

output:
a 2d point rotating the reference around the pivot

an expression for the destination point would be (pseudo-code):

output.x = pivot.x + (reference.x - pivot.x) * cos( rotation ) -
(reference.y - pivot.y) * sin( rotation )
output.y = pivot.y + (reference.x - pivot.x) * sin( rotation ) +
(reference.y - pivot.y) * cos( rotation )

     Anyone know how to have a rotation slider control a 2d point
     rotating around another 2d point with an expression?

     Basically I want to know how the tracker derives rotation from 2
     points, but I guess in reverse.

     Or a way to hack this together by linking parameters. I haven't
     found a solution.

     Thanks in advance
