The term 'Bogart' as it has been defined here only exemplifies part of the meaning. It has nothing to do specifically with 'hogging' a joint or smoking in general.
It is a VERB describing an act of boldness and fearlessness as was exhibited by Bogart in most of his film roles.
You Bogart your way into your boss' office when you don't care what the secretary says. You 'Bogart' your way into traffic when no one will let you into your lane and you 'Bogart' a joint when you could care less that anyone else is waiting for a hit.
This is the real origin of the term, "Don't Bogart that joint."
If you think you're just going to 'Bogart' me around like this, you are mistaken.
