While I agree this should be called as a defensive foul the overwhelming majority of the time, I'd humbly submit that there are times when the false double foul should be called. Where the shooter is barrelling down and plows through a long stationary defender, and the foul is a touch foul on the hand, the greater offender is the shooter and, I believe, he should not be let off the hook -- but I would only go there where (1) the charge was blatant and obvious AND (2) the defensive foul was minor and obviously did not contribute to the charge (but could not be completely let go). I think if those two factors are met, you are not going to be remembered in a bad way.
I still don't think I would go down that false double street...in your situation, how about just calling the player control foul??? Everyone could see the ball handler was out of control and "barrelling" in, so just ring him up...
