    I'm reluctant to add this into General, but I'll leave this open for now and perhaps give it a bit of thought.

    I would actually love this, especially as an admin when I am invisible and want to follow a suspicious player.  I would add an optional distance parameter.  And, like the police say, maybe use "tail" as the command, since it's shorter (although you could do that with an alias):

    /follow <player> <distance>
    /unfollow

    We would need a permission:
    - general.teleport.follow

    And config.yml settings:
    # if true, then if no player is specified, then follow the nearest player
    # if false, then a player must be specified on the command line
    follow-nearest-player: true

    # default following distance if not specified
    follow-distance: 10

    # as long as our distance to the followed player is +/- the threshold, just stay still to prevent excessive relocation
    follow-threshold: 3

    # if follower specifies a distance smaller than this minimum, use this instead
    minimum-follow-distance 3

    # if true, then rotate the follower to face the followed player
    always-face-followed-player: true

    I'd be happy to be an alpha tester of this for you.
