[BUG] Characters continue to dodge while paralyzed

(Posting here because the bugtracker doesn't have anywhere for 2.x bugs.)
I was just experimenting with a mindcrafting monk, and made the rather stupid mistake of casting Psychic Drain on a bunch of Dreads. Needless to say the backlash hit my poor monk rather hard, paralyzing her. I figured this would be YASD.
However, the Dreads missed. And missed. And kept missing, with repeated messages of, "You dodge the Dread's attack!" despite the fact that the character was completely paralyzed and unable to take any action.
I'm going to hazard a guess that this bug was never observed much before because paralysis is mostly a nonissue by the time dodging gets to be really useful, and paralysis that bypasses FA (like the mindcraft backlash) is rare. Granted that the combination of mindcraft and dodging is very munchkin, this should still probably be fixed, if only to make it a little less munchkin.
