You character doesn't move, that's knockback not pushback. Pushback is when your cast bar gets pushed back towards the start of the cast when you take damage. Channeled casts like Unload and Death From Above are pushed towards the end of the cast, so you can loose the final tick if you take damage during the channel.
It's not an issue if you're not taking damage, but it's pretty annoying if you are.
And here I lvled up to 80 valor thinking that the pushback on my Tracer Missle when taking damage was an unavoidable balancing mechanic. Those Sorcerers are in for a surprise now that their lightning wont affect my dps. Wow, I can't believe I've been oblivious to that for so long.
