So, this could be either a violation followed by a personal foul, or simply a personal foul.

Yes that is true, but the rule did not change. So leaving your lane space on the release is not a violation and the rule was changed last year. I am going to assume that he knows this already. The only way this would be a violation is based on the new rule of entering the semi-circle, as this is what the new rule addresses.
And I do not know how you would have a foul on a FT shooter without causing a violation first. I guess if the FT shooter is leaning over the line maybe but not likely. Or if the FT restrictions have ended and then the FT shooter enters the lane and is then fouled. But that sounds like a for the purposes of the new rule application.
