Yes, removing all items from the Hosts setting will disable connections
entirely, since the default behaviour if there isn't a filter to match a

Yes, that's exactly what it would have done - you simply specify Allow when
you add a the new filter, without specifying a pattern for it.  Is there any
particular reason you didn't try that?
