Yes.

Both is valid with the same result. But using a hostgroup is shorter than 
indiviual hosts. In your case you will just have two hostgroups for both types 
of nodes. There is nothing special about @allhosts or all.q - it's just a name 
of a sample setup and can even be removed in case you don't like or need these 
definitions.

Yes.

Yes.

Exactly. The same syntax for individual queue instances applies to this entry 
too, like:

subordinate_list      NONE,[@fasthosts=slots=64(low.q:0:sr)]
subordinate_list      NONE,[@fasthosts=low.q=1]
