Overall, I believe the NFHS has this one right.

CMH, the situation you cite makes for a good discussion as to what is "possession." You'd have to use your best judgment there.

However, a keeper holding the ball is unquestionably possession, and I believe it's far more just to start with an IFK here, rather than a drop ball. In fact, I'd like to see FIFA adopt this rule, when the keeper has possession.
