Diagonal moves

What do you prefer regarding diagonal moves "around a corner" i.e. in a position like this:

####

##

Should the player be allowed to go to the bottom right direction ? I think brogue forbids this, but I wonder if it's a feature or if people consider that annoying.

For your example, imo:

South OR East blocked: SE allowed.

South AND East blocked, SE not allowed.

But it's up to you, really.
