*shrug* I'm not sure that Enter actually *should* trigger the "Save" button
if the focus is on one of the edit fields.

The account is Enabled; that it failed to connect doesn't necessarily
disable the account (it has to be a "fatal" error - something that retrying
wont fix (e.g. authentication failure)).

This is the "Desired" status, not necessarily the current status of all the
enabled accounts.

A disable/re-enable will trigger an immediate reapplication of the desired
status.  Presumably if you wait until the timer triggers the next connection
attempt, that would also work.
