I'm not seeing how this would bother the free throw shooter as the ball would be long gone prior to a defender being able to put himself in this position.
If it were an effective way to "bother" a shooter, it would also affect jump shooters. But I've yet to see anybody employ that tactic as a way to disturb jump shooters.
