I understand what you are saying even if the spacing is not as you planned.
What we do is, no one signals, that only causes major problem if one signals backwards and another blows it dead. This is what most college crews say to do as well.
It depends on many things on who has the best angle of forward or not. Some say backside wing, some say ballside wing, if it is not an immediate pass and wings go downfield - then maybe the referee. What we have decided is - no one signals, and if anyone thinks is is forward - blow it dead. This way, if no whistle, fumble, if whistle -back it up and sell it as forward. I think you cannot go wrong doing it this way cuz it covers all situations and doesn't make "cross signals and whistles" with the crew.
