It is a violation to step OOB with player control and you have PC during a dribble, so THERE IS a rule to support a violation.
The question becomes how you define an interrupted dribble. Some will argue that since the ball is away from A1 when they step OOB, it's an interrupted dribble. Others, myself included, believe an ID is an ACCIDENTAL loss of the dribble and that makes this a continuous dribble with player control, and an OOB violation. The last time this came up, some were even for calling a T for leaving the playing surface.
Keep in mind if you rule interrupted dribble, that EVERY dribble leaves the dribbler's control when it leaves their hand. This is a case of a player dribbling the ball beyond a defender, not losing the ball.
