I would suggest preventing such players from passing walls that have
"nomagic" set on one of the items on those squares.  This would highly
reduce the amount of maps that would have to be changed, to prevent
abuse of this feature.

Where map makers want to restrict players from passing through walls,
the "nomagic" flag is used already, to hinder Dimension Door.
