Dev totally agree its a stupid and unfair rule especially when you consider its not a hard and fast rule and is left to the referees interpretation invariably.The punishment doesn't always fit the crime and its a double whammy to the offending team.A penalty should be sufficient.
There should be an amendment maybe to include a rule where ,say, if there is only one opposing player between the man with the ball and the bye line then it is deemed as a clear goalscoring opportunity a bit like the offside rule.
Or possibly give the player a sin bin style sending off for a limited time .
