Space Diving: Iron Man Meets Star Trek Suit In Development

If the astronaut moved her/his leg the wrong way, it could be melted off by the jets. Then what will (s)he do?

Why, scream, of course.
But as we all know, in space, no one....

The problem, in my limited understanding, is that any "suit" sturdy enough to support re-entry will in reality be a capsule. Even if it has dividers for arms and legs. With today's technology, it's going to be a far cry from "free flight", and more like going over the Niagara falls in a steel barrel. Some would want to, but I doubt it would be very enjoyable.
