If a player enters a nether portal and all of the sides on the exit portal have been blocked off and protected, the player is permanently stuck unless an administrator moves him. This is extremely frustrating in regards to griefing.
It is NOT possible to open the console or chat to type a command such as /spawn or /home; therefore the player is permanently stuck without the assistance of a sys op.
Please allow commands to be typed while standing within a nether portal to alleviate this issue.

Can confirm, but not sure if intended. The only circumstance I see it being impossible to break out is with this 'protection', which is not found in vanilla minecraft anyhow.
