It seems the HL cheated a couple of steps moving down field, but not so far that he couldn't have retreated if whether or not the kick crossing the line became a factor.

Regarding the coach on the field, not knowing whether or not their was a time out called, one of the officials NOT involved in the discussion should be on the alert for things like this and if there was a TO called, gently steer the coach towards his teams huddle, or if no time out was called, intercept him and gently steer him back to his sideline, assuring him that, either way, the Referee will explain everything once he gets things sorted out.

It's an ounce of prevention, pound of cure type thing.
