Yes, your ‘debian/rules’ should contain only those commands that are
specific to your package, and not leave any unused examples. The same
goes for the entire contents of ‘debian/’, too.

The ‘debian/copyright’ must contain the full license terms for all
works that make up your package (and, if applicable, the license terms
for the work as a whole).
Exception: In the case where the license terms are already in Debian
in the ‘/usr/share/common-licenses/’ directory, you can refer the
reader to a specific file in there.
You would do well to write your ‘debian/copyright’ file to conform
with <URL:http://wiki.debian.org/Proposals/CopyrightFormat>, which
will also have the benefit of reducing ambiguity in what's required.

I would recommend simply retitling the existing ITP bug report, but
others may have a reference to contradict this.

Yes, packages you submit should be built and tested against the
‘unstable’ suite (‘sid’).
You might like to investigate the ‘pbuilder’ package, and schedule a
job to update a ‘sid’ image once per day. I use it to build and test
my packages against ‘sid’ while keeping my active operating system at
‘lenny’.
