Yes there is - it's the original rule we're discussing about delay.

Can the defense steal it from the in-bounder before he gets OOB?

No, that's a delay warning

Can the in-bounder be called for traveling while moving OOB?

No - but this is a better question, because he is "holding or dribbling a live ball inbounds" so he has player control. I guess this is one of those times the intent and spirit of the rule is different than the letter of the rule.

And, no one has yet answered the question of isn't it a violation to take a live ball OOB?

Same answer on this one.
I must admit what you have done is pointed out the need (once again) for the NF to clean up the language in the rules.

Thanks for the signature line (guess if I was I nice guy I would have asked you first). Coincidentally stumbled upon that sentence today, and just had to have it -

You're welcome. I notice you are not the only one using former statements of mine as a signature. Maybe I should research the copyright laws and ask for royalties.
