That is going to be referenced in the live action Ahsoka series, so it may introduce some time travel properly to the canon.

Sounds great! I hope he does it. Sounds like a lot of fun even with those other examples. Plus, the contrast between the less serious SF (DW) and more serious (ST) would be a new, interesting take. You'd have "Starfleet" doing things their way and the Doctor doing it his own way! Both trying to save the same problem . . . or something like that.
What happened with the World Between Worlds was Dimensional more than it was Temporal, being that the WBTW is George Lucas' version of the Wood Between the Worlds from C.S. Lewis' The Chronicles of Narnia novel The Magician's Apprentice.
Okay, sure, but it was still time travel.
No, it wasn't. It was dimensional travel that resulted in a temporary extratemporal (out-of-time) event.
So time travel.
Well...
If you actually look at what happened in the world between worlds, you will note that nobody ever traveled from one time period to another. There was travel from one place to another, the "real" world to the world between worlds and back. At the end of the day, Ezra went back to his place in the timeline and Ahsoka back to hers, back to where they both began. Travel between places, not travel through time.

Temporarily existing entirely outside of the temporal plane is not time travel.
When two people from two different time periods meet and interact in the same space, it's time travel, regardless the technobabble.
It's beginning to look a lot like Christmas...
...from a certain point of view.
I must admit, “Star Wars time travel denialism” was not a conspiracy theory I was expecting to come across.
Is there any way I can travel back in time to stop myself ever mentioning the whole Star Wars/Time Travel subject?
No you can't, because like/unlike (depending on your point of view) there is no time travel in reality. In this essay, I will
Sorry.
I think there's actually a pretty neat crossover idea, assuming that there is (virtually) no time travel in Star Wars, so when the Doctor arrives in the alternate universe they have to deal with that and eventually figure out how to use the force or something to send back information that prevents The Bad Thing from happening. I dunno, I'm not a writer, thank god.
No.
It will cause a temporal paradox that will rip the web of time apart like, I dunno - what the would the Doctor compare it to?
Cheese in a shredder.
Ezra's arm exits the "outside the temporal plane" place and grabs someone from his past. Asohka doesn't enter the World Between Worlds of her own accord.
That IS time travel, as sure as a TARDIS suddenly being on the side of a skyscraper with the doors to the swimming pool open because River Song jumped is.
Po-tay-to, po-tah-to
