Importing comments and banning users

falenaI have a bit of a conundrum.
I periodically import my LJ entries and comments to my DW journal.
However, someone on my LJ friendslist just told me they'd be much happier if their comments to my LJ didn't appear on DW.
As far as I know there's no way to prevent a specific user's comments from importing, so I thought I'd try to get the same result by banning the LJ user's OpenID from commenting on my DW.
Sadly, that doesn't seem to work.
Does anyone know why? When the banned LJ user's OpenID tries to comment on my journal here the banning feature works perfectly...Was I wrong to think the importer would respect my banning preferences or what?
Does anyone know of any other tricks to get what I was trying to do? Thanks.
