Would you also allow them to bounce it off the back of the backboard?

Sure. Once. Then the ball would go to the other team due to the violation.

Not really a good comparison to the play in question.

I see it more like the thrower backing up and touching the wall behind them. Whether the player touches the wall or the ball touches the wall in the out of bounds area, there is no depth restriction on the throw in so I'm not seeing a rule being violated in this specific instance.
