I'm trying to get the same behavior that they implemented in the VASL module. If you want your opponents view of the map to move to an area that you are discussing, you would CTRL-Mouse click on the hex (which could be empty) and a red ring would be displayed, on the other side, your opponents map centers on that hex. This avoids all the "In hex 23.43" communication, because his map will center on the hex your talking about and he will also see the red ring.
For an example, you need to tell your opponent that your preforming an artillery strike on a hex, which shouldn't have any of your own counters in it. So this ability to move the opponents map is an important feature, so much so, that I'm very surprised that it isn't already an inherent aspect of the VASSAL design infrastructure.
