Correct, however those are handled by the callback, which can be
redefined via the wp-head-callback argument, if you so choose.

Yes, it is, because if a background is assigned to the body class,
then removal of that background is no longer possible. If you add a
background element to the body in the stylesheet, then you are not
implementing the custom-background functionality properly.

Probably. Until then, the theme can implement those by creating their
own callback, if desired.
