A visiting shihan demonstrated a choke which was applied for shomen uchi. Nage goes behind uke as in irimi nage but immediately applies the choke, which looks very much like kata ha jime in judo.

My current teacher just did a great class last week entirely on tachidori in which he did the above sort of technique. He referrred to it as an "okuerijime," though.
Reminds me of when he did a variation of iriminage in which he used both hands on my neck during the balance break in the tenkan -- effectively choking me and throwing me at the same time. Eek.
