Yes.  The master key isn't used on the network and changing it is very
difficult in lenny.

Correct.  Clients will negotiate the strongest available encryption key
automatically.

Ideally, yes, since that will get them on AES only.  If you have any
existing keys that don't have AES keys, you do need to list fallback
enctypes as supported until you've rekeyed them or you won't be able to
authenticate to them.
