Why do you have a problem with the way 8-7-J-2 is written? It seems pretty clear to me what it intends to cover.
Example: R1 at second, two outs. Sharp ground ball to F6, and R1 moves to run behind F6 heading for third. As F6 comes up to throw to first base, R1 veers slighty and bumps F6 just as F6 tries to release the ball.
You cannot use this rule in your situation, since the runner was retired when she interfered.
