I'd allow it, no question. The spell is poorly written (as many in the Spell Compendium are) and seems to assume that "what it is holding" will be an object (or "item," at one point in the text), but it never actually limits the spell to objects.

Also, I understand frankthedm's point about "possession" versus grappling, but I don't think that compels the "strict rules interpretation" result he believes it does, since the spell itself never says anything about possessing, but only holding.
