Actual rule:
1. Team control.
2. Ball gains FC status.
3. Team with control is last to touch before it goes to the backcourt.
4. Team with control is first to touch after it goes to the backcourt.

With your rule of thumb, there are violations that would be missed. For one, there is no requirement that the team in control actually touch the ball in the FC for a violation to occur.
