Ability to block/blacklist/ban a device from joining ZHA (by IEEE address)

I originally posted this as a question, but was encouraged to repost here as the feature does not seem to exist currently:

Block/blacklist a Zigbee device from joining ZHA?

A couple of my neighbor’s Hue lights are happily joining my ZHA network whenever I enable joining by going to the “add device” page. If I remove them, they will simply rejoin the next time I try to add a new device to my network. I’ve read that in Z2M there is a way to ban specific devices from joining the network. Is this possible with ZHA? I realize that I could allow the devices to join but keep them disabled — but it seems preferable to not allow them to join in the first place.

I would imagine a way to configure a list of banned IEEE addresses.

Based on the screenshot from the linked Z2M thread, it seems like Z2M offers a “block from joining again” option when removing a device. This would be nice in ZHA too:

I’ve also posted on the zigpy repo here:
