I don't have my book handy, but basically, it is going to boil down to did they gain an advantage? If there's no one guarding the thrower or the inbounds player and the thrower went to retrieve the ball that had gone beyond the sideline and carelessly tosses it in, I'm not going to call that. If they run over there and do it to break a press, I'm going to call it. Besides, "outside the end line" is a little vague. Am I "outside" the endline being at my house, several miles away? Obviously, that's a bit absurd and the intent is as JR said.
Either way, I don't think breaking the sideline in and of itself while not throwing the ball in is a violation.
