Tony, wouldn't that be "mostly" outside-the-skin? With Bob having one small line inside for Josie? But it sounds like you are saying that when we start talking about multiple input into the characters, we also need to start talking about multiple input into outcomes & ramifications of player actions. That seems like a natural extension of moving out of the character box to me.
Also, has Under the Bed already been raised? All the players are explicitly co-controlling a single character, the child. Though through the distancing technique of being the kid's toys. The goal of everyone is to play a story, and the goal is actually to "own" the character—or rather to determine what set of characteristics the character will own after the game ends. This also leads to group ownership of minor characters.
