How did you inform the PD of the fact that it was no longer
dependant on (and controllable by) the PSE?  Or, did you forego
in-band reconfiguration and power control?

 It wasn't necessary for the fairly specialized product which was configured at install time with power from PoE or wart but not
both.
I seem to recall at least one accidental connection of both with no detrimental effect but it wasn't investigated further.

I've seen a problem when the PoE module had a TL431 + optocoupler at it's output as feedback circuit.
A limiting resistor was lacking, and +12.3V from a wart turned the TL431 fully on and destroyed the optocoupler.
Subsequent PoE operation then had an open loop and destroyed the supplied circuit.
