Proof of concept that it's possible to use the zoom to warp through objects or walls with the regular Dosbox, like in other emulators. It's rare but pressing shift seems to allow Dosbox to freeze when holding F5 (the expected behaviour with other emulators). You may not need to press F5 the first time you press shift. In Dosbox-X, Pcem and real hardware it's much easier, you don't need to do all that. Here I used Dosbox 0.74-3 default settings except cputype=pentium_slow and cycles=max but I don't think it helps.
