That’s a power move?
With all due respect, the few times I’ve had this happen to me I just think of the person coming up to me as a whiny bitch, especially if the matter is such a low priority as to not get a response.

If I have to come to you desk to ask for something I have likely lost respect for you and I don’t care that you think I am a whiny bitch. Different business units have different priorities, but you should still set the expectation of when you will be able to get to it.

Is it the other guy’s responsibility to set the expectation on when to get to it?
If it is stopping you, then talk to your supervisor/boss/manager/whatever. It’s literally their job to “unstuck” you, especially when it’s due to differing business priorities (i.e. red tape).
As another comment has mentioned, if it truly is a priority than at least with digital communication you’ve established a paper trail. In person confrontations diminish the length and quality of this trail.
