I suppose the argument could be made that it has no impact on the play and, therefore, should not be called. But it seems like an old-fashioned travel to me.

I noticed the same move a couple years ago and have added that call to my repertoire. It often got questioned at first, but when I stopped to explain it to the coaches, they understood.
I think a similar thing occurs when a player comes flying in from the outside for a rebound and grabs the ball while he's still in the air. He often lands one Foot A, then B, then steps with foot A. Also a travel.
