The only issues that I see are if the unit is fired upon.
Who gets to shoot first? What happens if the bounding unit 
is suppressed? Will it still get its fire action?

I would add the following clarifications:
 - Both units perform a fire action immediately.
 - The leapfrogging unit fires with half its firepower
   (since the unit is split between moving and covering troops - 
   this also has implications for play balance)
 - Casualties/Suppressions are determined after both units 
   have fired.

Cheers,
Tony C.
