I think in most situations where a defender is close enough to intentionally interfere like we are talking about is in position to play the ball instead. A coach would be crazy to teach it in this situation.
I still don't think it will happen that often. It will happen but I'd be surprised if any official sees it more than once or twice in a varsity season.
