Will body blocking with allies function more similarly to how it did before guldan's inclusion and the misha pathing fix?

I remember before that bit of patching, the pathing would automatically move you around an ally. On live servers I find myself getting stuck much more frequently, as the auto-pathing opts to take a straight line and stick to it as opposed to moving around obstacles.

Pathing should be smarter when you're blocked by an ally and there is a difference between the Movement Speed between the two of you.

"Improvements have been made to allied body blocking."

Can someone elaborate on this? Does this mean it's less likely to body block allies or more likely?

The idea is that allies will body block you less often.
