Hi
I won't have much time to attend to these two bugs before the end of
next week, but I hope to find some time to actually debug this then.
Any help with these would be appreciated.

Beyond that, it doesn't actually have an immediate effect - an existing
connection doesn't appear to be disconnected in favour of a
non-blacklisted cell. However once something else forces a disconnect,
the cell appears to be actually blacklisted. At the moment I'm not sure
about the intended behaviour in detail either.

Confirmed, hopefully not too hard to fix - the internal readline code
seems to be rather straight forward.
