After talking with a less experienced player on the multi-alt server and showing him the Isolated Apartment, he remarked that it was a "noob trap". Admittedly, I made that square so I take the blame for it. However, I would like to propose making such "noob traps" log-to-local so people who are unfortunate enough to get trapped inside have a chance of escaping without having to suck up to someone. The two I can think of off-hand are the Isolated Apartment and that Vortex Gate in the Desecrated Church that leads to what looks like one of Pandilex' hide-outs!

It may be nothing for you, but what would it be to the poor newcomer who doesn't really know what s/he is doing? I would probably quit pretty quickly. Of course, if there is no-one to page other than the person who locked me in there (i.e. no-one to tell me I can log-to-local), I would probably quit even if the square was log-to-local because I would likely not know about that game feature. Right now, anything that drives away newcomers like that is not recommended, if you ask me, and anything that encourages griefers goes double.
