This is the same as I thought, but I wasn't sure.
It just seems unfair to me that an OOB R player could reach back into the field, while he was still OOB, and touch/muff the ball and (even if the ball would not have gone OOB on it's own) the action of the R player causes K to be penalized.
Two lessons:
1. K should not kick a free kick even
near the side line.
2. What I preceive as "fair" and what is the proper ruling are not necessarily the same.
