INDESIGN: Inserting an Inline Graphic at Text Selection

I'm trying to find the simplest way to accomplish the following scenario:

* A range of text is already selected.

* I want to do the equivalent of Object > Anchored Object > Insert...

So far I have only succeeded when making the rectangle unanchored, and cutting and pasting into the selection. I would much prefer to do something like this (made-up) syntax:

tell parent story of selection
	set MyAnchoredFrame to insert anchored frame at selection with properties {content type:graphic type, ¬
		applied object style: MyObjectStyle, ¬
		height: MyHeight, ¬
		width: MyWidth}
	tell MyAnchoredFrame to clear object style overrides
	--AND THEN STUFF IT WITH AN IMAGE, ETC.
end tell

Is there no way to directly mirror the functionality of Object > Anchored Object > Insert... ?
