Would doing this on purpose be considered an angle shoot?

I think it would. Basically, by doing this, one has the option of staying on "away" status with no further risk,

Jumping back in the fray is one thing, but if the site has no all-in protection, then being "away" can only hurt you, not help you if there's a bet coming around. You'll fold the hand. If hero had be unlucky to face a bet when all this happened, he would have had his nut hand folded for him.

Oops; I stand corrected. I was assuming it behaved like disconnect protection with the added ability to rejoin the hand later. Yeah, if there is a risk of being folded, it's definitely not an angle-shoot even if done on purpose.

I was only able to jump back in because I clicked the "I'm Back" button before it got back to my turn.

The point is - an alert player could time them selves into away, auto check, and sit back in immediately.
