With the advent of varregions, the useful Firestorm "gth <number>" local chat command no longer works as it should on any region other than the SW root region.
Instead of teleporting the avie vertically upwards to height <number> from the current spot, it takes you instead to (128,128, <number>) on the SW region.
Is this a problem of viewers not being properly geared up for varregions? Or is it a bug/feature that might be fixed in OpenSim in the future?

Re: Varregions and viewer gth chat command
Hi Dot,
I can confirm that this is a bug in Firestorm. I reproduced it in OSGrid, too.
A workaround is to open the World Map. Just doing that, even once, fixes the viewer's understanding of the region, and from then on "gth" works correctly.
