What? Fux says that's illegal? That's pretty surprising. I studied Fux extensively a few years ago, but I don't remember him admonishing against that. Probably because stuff like that happens all over classical period music, and as you observed, later theorists made it permissible. I'll take your word for it, though. One learns something new every day (or relearns something one forgot).
At times like this, it's pretty easy to see why later composers wanted to throw these rules to the winds, isn't it?
When I get a chance, I'll see if I can make a recording. I could do it on harpsichord, fortepiano or clavichord (I'm an early keyboard junkie).
