It would allow him to 'wait him out'. I would guess it could be equally=20
annoying for both parties. Joe would not be able to leave, if he did, Bob
would be able to follow (assuming for all posibilitys sake that you are=20
able to change direction while passing through other people).

This would also allow for some variant 'quantum character tunneling
effect', which would allow characters to 'tunnel' through a long row
of other characters, if you don't check if its possible (by movement
points, tile availability and the like) for Bob to go trhough A, J and M
before you allow him.
