As far as I know, baked textures are only held as temporary textures on the sim, so they won't be available in the new region after a teleport until the client uploads them on arrival. However, if your client has baked textures cached for another avatar from the previous region ideally it should continue using those until it is able to obtain fresh ones from the new region, rather than clouding the avatar. That would give a more seamless experience than what appears to happen now. The only minor "issue" I can see with that at first inspection, is if the other person changes clothes before following you, in which case their appearance to you would be out of date until their new baked textures are available.
