I am probably going to call this a foul...I would prefer to get those slapping/grabbing/reaching-type fouls that occur when a defensive rebound has been controlled so that I don't have a rebounder swinging his elbows at/near the face of an opponent ("since the ref won't get this guy off of me, I guess I'll have to do it", says the rebounder). Then I've got all kinds of issues I've got to deal with....(did the elbow make contact? is that intentional? is it flagrant? what happens when similar elbow contact occurs in a different situation later in the game? etc.)
When you call this a foul, players quickly learn NOT to do that (slap/grab/etc) and simply run back down court on defense.
