Already a bug! As we discovered a few days ago, you can't use MoveTo to move a rotated object (at least, not if you want it to behave the way you'd expect). So:
Object.prototype.releaseAnchored = function() {
if (this.parent.constructor.name != "Character") throw "Object is neither anchored nor inline"
this.select(SelectionOptions.replaceWith);
this.parent.parentStory.recompose();
var myBounds = this.geometricBounds;
app.cut();
app.paste();
var newBounds = app.selection[0].geometricBounds;
app.selection[0].move(undefined,[myBounds[1] - newBounds[1], myBounds[0] - newBounds[0]]);
return app.selection[0]
}
