Designated TO area?

I'll agree they can't be in the other team's huddle, but that can easily be enforced without forcing them into their defined TO area.

Are we talking the actual rule or the practical application of the rule?

By rule, they must be in their timeout area.

In practice, I'm not going to say anything about it as long as they're not closer to the other team's huddle than they should be and aren't otherwise doing something they shouldn't.
