This is a wonderful example of how complicated the rules are written. 10-3-11 should specifically read it is a technical foul to reach through the plane and touch or dislodge the ball "while in possession of the thrower or being passed to a teammate outside the boundary line."
The shorthand reference "as in 9-2 Penalty 3" says exactly that.
My ruling...no technical foul unless there is a previous warning for one of the four delays.
