Any rebounding action? If the shot goes, do you allow B to inbound the ball? It would be a great reward for B's awareness if they were allowed to inbound the ball for an easy shot at their own basket. But do you let things go that far?

As stated, this was a throwin and the teams (presumably) were already going the correct directions before the throwin.
Given that...
It will be over after 10 seconds due to the backcourt violation. If the "shot" occurs first, it counts. If the shot goes, the whistle is blown at that time...to clarify for the scorer that the points count for B. The throwin that follows is for A as if a player from team B made the shot (doesn't matter by who or how the points were scored.

Agreed -- but I have a hard time reconciling this with a foul by B. It seems that it wasn't just A1 who was confused.
So, imo, if "everyone" was confused, treat it as if A was going the right way -- count the basket and go to the other end to shoot the FT. If "only A1 and B1" were confused, the 10-seconds or the foul makes the ball dead and administer as any other common foul on B.
If "more than A1 and B1 but not everyone" was confused, use official's judgment.
