Shirley not Corners, free kicks, long throws etc. would be deemed set plays I would have thought

In which case at what point does it cease to be a set piece, and start open play again? Once it's in play, it's in play.

Scoring direct from a penalty or, arguably, a free kick would not be open play, clearly, but for my money, once you take a corner, it's anybody's ball. By your logic, a team who take a corner (or a throw in, for argument's sake) short, ping it around neatly between eight different players for a couple of minutes without the opposition getting close to the ball, and then stroke it into the bottom corner, haven't scored from open play. Not only that, but every phase of the game starts with some kind of stoppage, so where do you draw a line?
