I would expect that the moment the gap fires, a pulse would indeed
race back from the gap to the transformer. Moreover, I wouldn't
expect _any_ type of line to behave much differently. Consider:
you are slamming a short circuit across an energized line.
I may, when time permits, remove my filter board from the neon
setup and attempt to scope this. I am reluctant to do so however as I
am planning to use that transformer for the job I am working on.
