yup.. same with "push to" (see below)...

then you have folks like myself... i use either "push to" or "pull to"
depending on which side of the door the victim will be on when they exit ;)

  "hey, push the door to as you leave" - door opens out

  "pull the door to on your way out" - door opens in

in either case, the goal of closing the door but not all the way is
accomplished...
