Greg, you've got that backwards. If the dribbler is in the backcourt and then puts one foot in the frontcourt, that is not enough to give the ball frontcourt status. In that case, when the ball is being dribbled, both of the dribbler's feet and the ball must touch the frontcourt to establish frontcourt status.
However, once frontcourt status has been achieved (as is the case in your example), any one of the 3 points in the backcourt results in a violation while the ballhandler has control.
Hope that helps a little.
Chuck
