Well - probably :)
The current behaviour results in each device becoming unblocked no
matter what state it had before.

Well, not really... I mean: in the no_bt_rfkill=1 case the driver should
(try to) unblock the bluetooth device in order to activate it to make it
further manageable via it's own (hci) rfkill switch.
I don't think setting up the ideapad_bluetooth rfkill is necessary for
that. Not setting it up is IMHO the right direction. Just the device
activation is missing.
