afaik
The MGB oil cooler is separate from the MGB so it is a possible oil leak location and that is why it will be automatically bypassed (pressure drop). If the oil pressure drop continues then the bypass can be cancelled as a possible leak is not in the cooler.
I dont think you would need to idle an engine as you would expect 'input acc hot #n' once MGB bypass is activated, you have the APU to fire up to provide electric power if need be if you lose a generator in the accessory, which btw shares oil with the MGB.
Without the proper report coming out we will have to wait and see what actually has occurred (as actually as they can get).
Getting an INPUT ACC HOT by itself would not cause the oil cooler to auto bypass.
There must have been a reduction in pressure to cause the bypass, basically an amber MGB OIL PRESS caption.
