I know this is quite late for a response but I've only just joined and couldn't resist this one.
The correct interpretation is that the keeper is in possession when any part of his/her body is touching the ball. If a player kicks at the keeper, even if not making contact, it is not an indirect for dangerous play, it is a direct free kick. A direct free kick because the act of kicking is one of the ten offenses that require this restart. (Kicks or attempts to kick an opponent).
