With a static-stub zone (new in BIND 9.8), your server would not prime its cache with the bad NS rrset from the authoritative server. It would simply start all query resolution for the domain in question (possibly bigger than the zone) at that server, thus bypassing the bad NS rrset.

Haven't done it but don't see why not. Since every entry in named.conf specifies the zone file you can definitely have multiple zones all pointing to the same zone file. (We do that for many ancillary zones that we want to point to our primary domain so have an aliases file that uses the @
