Pretty much.

This definately is what I was looking for. Only so far the rotation is 
always rolling backwards with respect to the direction
of the wall.

As for when it reaches the bottom corner of an overhead , say for example a 
spiked part of the bsp on the ceiling, or similar,
I dont know how to detect such. I am using checkbottom()  but apparently its 
got a height tolerance gap which is pretty big,
so there is a false positive and you can sometimes see the gib still rolling 
in mid air.
