As alluded to in a previous message, it is not that they cannot
be favorites (all that is required is that they not be marked disabled),
but the demo channels have to be explicitly requested to be
returned via the lineup request, until one subscribes to the service.

I believe that (not returning them by default) was absolutely the
correct choice by SiliconDust to not cause problems with other
existing apps and cause their customers confusion about these
2m demo channels.
