The precedent has been set that they _can't_ -- SR3, p. 150: "Vehicles are
single entities. (...) magicians cannot use magic to target individual
portions of a vehicle." Basically, my question is whether a building is
such a single entity as well, or whether its walls, windows, and doors are
separate entities.
