Wow. Just caught up.
Sean: what you are saying makes sense logically and perhaps the game should have been written that way. But it wasn't. You must take the attack action to Shove (or Grapple), and an opportunity attack is not an attack action. It's a reaction that allows a melee weapon attack. Not the same thing, as James Glover has been trying to tell you for 3 pages.
So, yeah, if you allow that you're house ruling. I think it's a sensible and harmless house rule, but it's not RAW.
