Are you sure about this? I remember reading something about this play once.

Where?
Unless you can produce it, yes, I'm sure! 
mick, you weren't fouled, you were mugged. There's a difference.

I also remember reading it at some point in the past. Perhaps it wasn't in the "book" IIRC but it was in an interpretation. The basis was that you can't push someone, even if you use the ball to do it. The ball, for the spirit of the rule, is considered an extension of the hand.
By the strictest reading of the rules, most of what we call fouls would not be since the contact is often through the shirt and not directly skin-to-skin.
