You have never been shopping with a toddler or baby have you? I don't expect right of way when I shop, but I sure as hell don't want to be there long. Little children have a *very* short attention span, and to make everyone else in the shop's life better, so the shorter the shopping expedition, the better really.
I think, in the end, it comes down to courtesy, whether pushing the stroller or not. No one has a god given right to go first, so why not be a little courteous to those of us trying to get out of the shop quickly?
edit: to the op - there are times we have both been out shopping and the child and stroller have gone separate ways. It is actually an evil plot we parents have initiated to annoy Analog
