Yeah, I think all combinations are possible. Sitting on someone's face is a good example of active receiving, I think - and that can be dominant or submissive (which kindof translates, but not quite, to leading or following) depending on how that's set up. Whereas the passive version of that would be to allow someone to go down on you (or ordering someone to, if you're dominant). Pain isn't the only sensation involved in kink, after all!
I think it probably needs a bit more work/study/research and fleshing out of descriptions if anyone else is going to use it as a system. These are just the categories that appear in my head if I'm figuring out whether (and how) I might play with someone. It's awesome if other folks find it useful though. :)
