Seems to me that it would behave in the same way as it would being pushed in any direction. The robot doesn't care which way it's facing - if it were to be pushed against, the driver (or software) could just compensate by increasing the force in that dimension - then it just becomes a question of traction.

That video is incredible, btw. And I still want to see the controls!
