It would still require a test...which is what you're allowed anyway if you
loose your body. Besides I'd argue that an Astral mage/shaman's
connection to his own meat body would be stronger than his connection to a
focus... However, if you go with that idea (the spell-lock thing), you
could just as easily use the converse... plant a lock on your meat body
and take off, new astral projectee's could then trace the connection to
where you went off to. (Astral mage follows car and team catches up with
aid of second mage..) hmmm.
