I wonder if this shouldn't be handled in code but by a TCP loadbalancer like haproxy?

No, its 'readOnly', 'writeOnly' options for servers

What happens currently if 2+ servers are configured with consistent distribution hashing (ketama) but one of the servers becomes unavailable?

According to my research and tests, there is zero special handling for server failure. The consistent key hashing will distribute cache data across a pool of servers. However, if a member of the pool is unavailable, and the key you're operating on hashes to that server, you have a fatal situation for that particular key.
