Hi Jeff! I can answer question #1, but not the others:
You need the \clef to happen before the \pitchedTrill, like so: \new Staff { \clef "bass" \pitchedTrill c'1 ~ \startTrillSpan b' c'1 \stopTrillSpan } Getting the \clef above the \pitchedTrill command is going to be tricky, but I'm sure we can figure that one out somehow.
