Exactly. This is documented here:

No. For several reasons.
It seems that you can't easily do what you want within a PDIL
session, so you need to initiate the session yourself (you may keep
the CDIL and the FDIL, though). But this requires to succeed at the
DES-like challenge, which was only done from my computer AFAIK. I
really don't have much time now to publish yet.

No, I don't.
