Levitate doesn't allow you to bypass barricades

According to the wiki on barricades,
[C]haracters with a means of flying over or bypassing the barricade such as Flying, Hovering, Stepping of the Corner or Wisp Form may bypass barricades unhindered.
On Monognathus, I recently cast Levitate on myself via a spellgem, but was still unable to pass over the barricade. I don't know whether this is intentional or not.

As an aside, if it's not intentional, this seems like it would be a nice buff to an otherwise relatively low-power spell.

levitation is like the 'closerange attacks on flyers' aspect of ether stepping/feet of the wind nicked out of those

what flying/hovering (ghostwalk)/cornerstep/wisp form have in common is they're powerful 'true' movement abilities

in that sense it's not a bug and would be more of a suggestion
