Doorman Kidnapping - Bug or feature?

So, Doorman can literally softlock enemies in a little prison cell that is in the mid boss arena. It's an empty room with nothing to do and an indestructible glass wall thingy. He can consistently abuse this bug by ulting the enemy, creating the door and throwing them in. I think the people abusing this should be punished, because it is anti-game and forces the other person to know about the unstick button, and spend a lot of time there regardless - its in the mid boss arena after all, and the unstick isn't instant nor convenient. It is even more of a problem when your teammate refuses to be killed when inside the trap or refuses to use the unstick command to get out of it, which is basically griefing/being afk. Forever. And yes, this has happened in one of my matches, it's not just an hypothetical scenario.
This can happen in multiple places in the map and other people have reported similar situations.
Are the devs just fine with this or will the bug abusers and people teaming with them get banned or something? Because in Dota 2 you can do that as Tiny and nobody cares, although Tiny's throw doesn't teleport you across basically the whole map, underground and isn't uncounterable like Doorman's.

He did it 3 times to me, 1 with Bebop which just stayed there until the match ended, 1 with Lash and 1 with Holliday, which is a total of 6 softlocks in the match that lost us possibly thousands of souls, map control. Here is a screenshot of the spot, in the match I described:
