If a player attempts to control the ball with his/her leg or foot that would seem to be an intentional act, so...
Travel = no. Kicked ball = yes. That pretty much renders the time out & control portions of the question moot.

Securing the ball and striking it seem, to me, to be opposites.
If the ball went from no control to being between legs, I've still got no control.
If the ball was controlled, and a player put the ball between his legs (and was not being defended) so he could free his hands to call time out, I'm thinking we should not pick nits and give him the time out.
