It can't be DOGSO, so we can forget about that.

"Kicking or carrying the ball away, or provoking a confrontation by deliberately touching the ball after the referee has stopped play", however? Certainly sounds like it. Maybe in a friendly I'd use my discretion (providing I'd already indicated the restart is on the whistle) that the keeper hasn't actually delayed the restart, but even then if his actions have caused a reaction from the opponents and I think the temperature of the match is going to go up as a result, I'd still be cautioning.
 
The Ref Stop
The three criteria we have been asked to apply when deciding on DTR are Clear, Deliberate and Impactful. It sounds like this met the first two but not the third (because, as others have said, likely the referee has decided, correctly or incorrectly that it’s on his whistle).
To make this clear the player went to kick the ball BUT the keeper stopped play. The referee only got involved once the keeper cheated.
 
USB or delaying the restart… take your pick. Potential for loss of match control if you don’t caution but in a friendly you may get away with it. Easy yellow for me.
 
I think the answer is in the R’s head. If the R had already decided, for whatever reason (which could include he wasn’t happy with where the player was trying to take the quick kick), that he was making it ceremonial, then I think just talking to the GK is totally fine. If he was going to let the quick kick happen, the. This has to be a caution. (I think the Game has been growing overly permissive about delaying restarts and would personally like to see more cautions for it.) I also don’t think the caution is a hard sale at all—this is a laughing, “c’mon, you know you can’t kick throw it away when he’s trying to g to take the kick.”

Irrelevant for me. It's an unsporting act it doesn't matter that it wouldn't have an impact, the player doesn't know it wasn't going to be on xxxxxxxxxxmmnp whistle.

When the time wasting edicts came in The FA specifically said.

The act is absolutely ill intended. Whether it has an impact or not doesn' take away it's ill intent.

If this did not DTR and did not imapct the opponents then only in a friendly I will do away with a chat to the keeper. In a competitive game, or if there is any impact, its a definite caution and a relatively easy sell.
