So... map crossing, is it possible?

I've been working with the Data Editor and haven't yet started doing anything with the Trigger Editor, so I'd like to know from someone who's worked with it if crossing between maps (multiplayer campaign feature) is, after all, possible.
I took a look at Actions and found the Preload Map action, now I'm wondering if it works for multiple players.

Blizzard did say they were going to support it. People have said it is possible (but that was many patches ago).

However I have yet to see it used in multiplayer so can not say for sure. The only way to know for sure is to stage a simple test between 2 quickly made maps online or to wait until a map comes along which does use it.

I do know however that many RPGs like Zerg Hunter RPG plan on using multi map support (even if it does not force preloading and immediate transiction).
