I don't have a rule book with me, but I thought that the proper call was "intentional foul" if an opponent contacts the thrower out of bounds. I write for clarification just because someone might read "foul the thrower" and apply common foul judgment (e.g., yeah, he contacted him out of bounds, but the contact wasn't signficant enough to call...). It is my understanding that ANY contact with the ball while in possession of the thrower is a T (as you indicated) and ANY contact with the thrower is an intentional foul. Perhaps someone with a book could clarify.
