It doesn't automatically noplay in xboard.  I have a custom interface I use
at times, and it has code to check for 4 games vs same opponent and noplay them
for a while, as well as code to noplay anyone that disconnects 'too many times'
in one or more games.

You could do your own (internal) noplay with the new winboard, as you can
always use the "tellics +noplay <player>" when you want to from your engine.
I don't do this, but might at some time do so.
