Circling back to this as I see it is still active. The bike was returned (O2 Cycles, Bordeaux) on my friend's departure. He will let me know the denouement. Of some concern is not being here to further discuss, and the large deposit being held by O2, and some sense that O2 might decide he was to blame.
I agree that there is no pretty derailleur failure! This just looked very bad, with plastic blown out and all!
Again, thanks for all the observations.
