I don't want to speak for "most" areas, so I don't know how widely used it is. I can tell you the feedback I've gotten from the more senior refs in my association (the refs I've been told to listen to) on both formal evaluations and informal discussions has been to use this.

Now, there are two scenarios where this happens.

1. White contacts blue in the process of the ball going out of bounds off of white.

2. White contacts blue in the process of the ball going out of bounds off of blue.

1 may not actually be a foul, due to the advantage being negated by the ball going OOB. This is a legitimate no-call by rule.

2 is more sketchy by rule, but there are some locales where it's expected on slight contact that should, by rule, be a foul due to the result of the play.
