Great heads up from the players. And excellent explanation by the WH.

How many fans, coaches, and players would know that could be done
Most of them, I'd say, in the sense that if you showed them the play & asked what the result was, they'd get it right. Also I think most players would correctly try to advance the ball in that situation if they caught it.

About the only ones who'd get it wrong would've been those who'd seen a game under Fed rules some years ago where the ball was dead on recovery by K.
