Blink:
The question is, does shunting end your movement. If it doesn't, then if you are standing next to a wall with 30 feet of movement, you can try moving through it five times, saving five feet of movement to step to the other side. The chance you fail all five times is only 1/32, leaving you safe on the other side of the wall 97% of the time (taking an average of 6.25 damage). True?
While blinking, you can step through (but not see through) solid objects. For each 5 feet of solid material you walk through, there is a 50% chance that you become material. If this occurs, you are shunted off to the nearest open space and take 1d6 points of damage per 5 feet so traveled. You can move at only three-quarters speed (because movement on the Ethereal Plane is at half speed, and you spend about half your time there and half your time material.)
