It is more like he a vision of a possibilty or something. Things that will only happen if Desmond does this and that. Time travel etc gives me a royal headache, all the paradoxes... ugh.

Right, it's a possibility of the way it could happen. In the one with Charlie, Jin, and Hurley, he knew that since he (Desmond) was in the vision, he had to do this, that, and the other because if he didn't, it would turn out some other way.
Omit a link in the chain and the sequence of events is also changed.
Simple, eh?
