Should hobbitd maintain disabled hosts when restarted?

It should, provided that hobbitd saves and loads the checkpoint file. To do that, your hobbitd command in hobbitlaunch.cfg must include the options --restart=$BBTMP/hobbitd.chk --checkpoint-file=$BBTMP/hobbitd.chk

The files are still in the data/disabled directory but the hosts are listed as enabled after a restart.

These files are purely for backwards compatibility with BB scripts. Hobbit doesn't use any of the files from the data/disabled directory, but relies solely on the Hobbit daemon (hobbitd) to maintain the state of all hosts and tests.
