Kojak or Grattan ought to be able to say something authoritative about 
this.  I had always believed that the rule (not observed in the ACBL) 
not allowing defenders to ask about a possible revoke when partner did 
not follow suit was installed to avoid the situation in which a player, 
surprised (because, for example, declarer has a concealed 5-card suit he 
did not show), enquired if partner (really) could not follow suit.  This 
restriction seemed to me to be eminently sensible.  Nips UI in the bud, 
so to speak.  Ahoy, JE
