   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...
