it's best that license information is provided clearly for all external
parts of a release. otherwise, the collective license can be confused with
the constituent licenses.
i don't think that it's positively harmful to ship a release which is
missing information about jars that are apache licensed but i would ask to
find out their licensing if i didn't know them
(IMHO we need to move towards using meta-data to record this information so
that these questions don't have to continually asked)

it they don't provide their own NOTICE file then that's fine
but again, missing NOTICE files raise questions which then require answers

see http://www.apache.org/legal/
personally, speaking i wouldn't -1 a release that include LICENSE
information in the NOTICE but AIUI it's more appropriate in LICENSE

nope (AIUI generated files are not independently copyrightable)
just needed to check that these were indeed generated and so didn't need a
license header
