This would explain how Madara could use Kamui to jump from one dimension to the next but Obito couldn't use it to phase as he would basically be splitting himself (and thus the Ten Tails) across two dimensions. That's what i thought too. The Juubi was an immense mass of natural energy. He can't split this power between dimensions but he can teleport this mass entirely. It may be because Kamui isn't precise enough to accurately portion himself and the Juubi.
