Allrighty, I got it and (after a long struggle lol) confirmed that this 
is exactly what the code does :)

The refinement is more aggresive at not checking diagonal positions than 
I expected :) but it's probably really fast. I've finished my version of 
it, I hope it will work - it combines halfpel and qpel refinement for 
extra speed and doesn't require any extra checkcandidate code (or, even 
worse, any new checkcandidates).

I wonder what is faster and gives better quality - full sad-based 
refinement, or fast RD-based one :) If everything works, I'll have the 
answer tommorow.

I think I'll also create a fast version of normal halfpel refinement - 
should be useful :)
