This was expressed to me by a credible source. As with anything I hear, I want to run it by the rules, and I can't find anywhere that this is allowable. Only that, "The thrower must keep one foot on or over the spot until the ball is released." (4-42-6 NOTE).
Has anybody ever heard of such a thing not being a violation?

Yes, the player muffed the ball. Let's fix it & resume play.
