Subtle Indication of 'non-resisting' use HP for Knockback calculation?

I've commented on the "Wait, slams from behind work like slams from in front?" thing before. Ignoring questions of defence/surprise, once the slam actually happens, contact is made, and dice are rolled, it does seem odd.

If a DX roll to avoid falling over does get rolled, a penalty seems in order. -4 for behind, -2 from the side for "harsh" version, -2/-1 for a "kinder gentler"?
