At some point, if all the servers for a realm are marked 'dead' they
should all be re-initialized and reattempted. However, as you note,
it may be desired, so perhaps making it configurable is not a bad
option.

Realm/proxy failover is still a newer feature. You're probably best
off making changes to get it doing what you want, and posting a patch.
That will likely spark off some additional patches/work, as well.
Allowing for round-robin and failover as configurable options would be
good. It currently only does failover ( and as you've noted, not
perfectly ).
Any additions/patches/etc would certainly be welcomed. :)
