In the soon-be-released upgrade om PMX, it will be easy to shift 
accidentals, and PMX will insert extra space if needed to make room 
for the shifted accidentals.  (Please be patient).  Meanwhile, as I 
have done many times in my own scores, you can inline for example 
\loffset{.8}{\bigsh5}\ .  Of course this will not be transposed if you 
use PMX facilities to transpose the whole piece, but it does avoid the 
octave problem.  I believe you can also somehow enter an absolute 
pitch in the inline with "!", but I've never used that myself.

I'll get to the other questions later...have to get back to work now.
