Right, because the kick still hadn't ended.
It appears looking at A.R. II and III that the only fouls that wouldn't affect the privilege are PSK fouls and fouls by A during the kick.
That leaves some interesting holes in enforcement, though.
Consider the play above. Instead of the A player being tackled by the facemask on the 12 yard line, now consider the case where he scores on the play and B commits a 5- or 10-yard foul. That foul would be declined by rule and B would be able to wipe out the score and take the illegal touching privilege and the ball on the B20. Likewise, if A commits an IBB on the return, it would seem that B would be able to decline the foul and then claim the illegal touching privilege, wiping out the score.
Strange, strange stuff, but some of that same strange kind of stuff also appears in other places...
