This would mean inbounding the ball from the front court into the back court (which is now allowed) would be a violation. Also, inbounding the ball in the front court, having it deflected (without establishing player control and therefore team control) into the back court by a teammate then having it recovered by a member of that same team, would also be a violation, which it is not now.
I think it would be better to go with the NCAA version, which is to have team control on a throw-in, but also have the same exception which allows the play in blue to still be legal. This would also allow us to call team-control fouls on throw-ins as well.

Mark, your play in red should still not be a violation either way, because the throw-in is coming from OOB, not the front court. Remember, it is not considered the front court unless the ball is actually inbounds; it does not matter where the ball is located OOB.

I wouldn't have a problem with this either. I think the reasoning behind the NCAA going this route was to make the penalty a little less so officials would be more likely to make the call.
