I was wondering on scenario 2 that the ball which is caught in midair could be interpreted as a pass to oneself which is illegal (btw do you know the rule reference for that).
As long as the player is standing still or keeping a pivot foot, I wouldn't consider it as being a pass to oneself. I suppose you could, but isn't the rule intended to prevent someone from gaining possesion of the ball in a different location and thereby gaining soem sort of advantage?

In both cases, however, the ball can not be advanced, as has been said. Beginning another dribble is illegal.
