Ok, I found the answer to my second question - it fails the entire disk. So the first question remains.
I just figured that out---and I see you have too.The difference between what we would like it to do, and what it actually does can be frustrating sometimes. I think you can tell mdadm to (re-)verify the disk if you think it is okay, just has one bad block. But I never trust failing hard disks. It's a losing game.
