Blocked shot - Held ball or No call

Then again, until the shooter returns to the floor he/she is an "airborne shooter". My guess is that the "airborne shooter" only comes into affect if there's a foul. But I could be wrong there.

No. It isn't necessarily a shot. If the defender knocks it out, rather than the "shooter" releasing it, I wouldn't call it a shot and team control continues....(edit) and player control briefly ends but starts again when the ball returned to the shooter's hands.
