While B doesn't have control, they do have "possession". It's not explicitly defined in any book but it's B's ball as soon as the infraction occurs. What if you started the throwin, B takes a timeout, then it is disocvered in the timeout? Assuming it is still correctable, I think this example demonstrates that it really is B's ball.
I agree. There's a case play (somewhere in 2.10) where the first dead ball is caused by a held ball. The ruling is that if the arrow is pointed in A's direction, shoot the FTs as normal. If the arrow is pointed in B's direction, shoot the FTs with no one on the lane, and give B the ball.

The same logic should apply here.
good catch, bob!
