I have tried back and forth to reproduce this but no, if I have set a particular focus point, the camera will rather blink "unable to focus" than switch to another sensor. The MZ-S has this feature that allows the neighboring sensor to be used if the desired one cannot focus... [trying to be funny] Maybe your *ist D has even more hidden features? Can you open the rear door? What is behind? [/trying to be funny]

I keep my camera on central AF sensor mode since I always prefer to focus and recompose. Occasionally, however, it will start flashing the sensor to the left of center. (Maybe my camera is just a Democrat) A little experimentation also shows that it's actually using this sensor to focus. Just resetting the selector switch doesn't seem to help, but shutting off the camera and resetting the switch does. Has anyone else seen this?
