Offset feature

Would this be possible?

A command that would allow you to select an object, "save" it's position, then move it to 0,0,0 and then get offset x,y,z and rotation values from it's original position. In other words, learn how it has moved to get to its new position.

I ask for this because I am creating aircraft for a flight sim, and in the case of flight surfaces that do not rest neatly along the axis, you must move them so that they do, and then enter these offset values in a file in the simulation.
