Possible name origin

Assuming that this article is deemed notable enough to keep, is it possible that the name of this glitch is based off of Doraemon's Dokodemo Door (and should we make note of it)? That was definitely the very first thing that sprang to mind when I saw the article title, at least... 梅子 14:04, 17 February 2010 (UTC)

Doko definitely means 'Where' in Japanese, although I am not sure about Kashira... Sorry, I probably need to elaberate a little more but although Doraemon's Dokodemo Door seems similar to "Doko-Kashira" the name is probably just a bad translation of something like "Door where?" Nevertheless several sources actually name it that, if you do a Google Search most of them are forum posts although there a few pages such as this one [1]. --Chickasaurus 14:50, 17 February 2010 (UTC)

I'm not asking what the name means - it means "Where is this?" ("doko kashira" gives a feeling more along the lines of "now where could this be?" but I digress). "Dokodemo" means "anywhere." I know very well what they mean, I'm just wondering if the name of this glitch is a pop culture reference to Doraemon's Dokodemo Door. 梅子 14:52, 17 February 2010 (UTC)
