Does the same one-foot rule inbounds apply for anyone touching the ball? e.g. if a player is just coming back inbounds or into the frontcourt, does he need just "something in and nothing out" to be legal?

A player only has to have one foot in and nothing touching out of bounds to be considered inbounds. Same with a player in the frontcourt in that he's in the frontcourt if he has a foot in the frontcourt and nothing touching the backcourt (exception being a dribbler where the three points rule applies).
