I have to clarify something for myself here.

When you enter the wrong password into the Windows PEAP Client, IAS will
lock the account out because the client will keep trying the wrong password?

Wow.

The major RADIUS servers all have the correct behavior, in that if you put
the wrong password, it will send the correct response back to the client to
force it to reprompt the client to re-enter the username/password.

I've tested this with
FreeRadius  (Everything from .97 up has it)
Funk (Juniper now) Steel Belted Radius (SBR)
and
IDEngines Ignition server.

I figured Microsoft would use they're own API, and perform the correct
action.   I guess that would be a false assumption.

(To clarify my point, I'm blaming IAS for not following the RADIUS specs
that Microsoft created when they made the PEAP client in Windows XP. )
