Quite a lot of your requests with respect to formatting (points 4, 6 and 8) aren't something I've even thought about - I just hit ret and tab a lot :-)
I'm just lazy; I expect more from my software than that (e.g. it shouldn't be too hard to automate away having to hit return and tab a zillion times).
FWIW, I've found the answer to a couple of my questions (ok...I concede, I should have looked closer at cperl-mode's docs before posting...my bad). C-j is useful for getting you to the next line at the correct indent. In combination with the various "electric" settings -- like cperl-electric-keywords -- it makes editing so much easier.
Expect more from your software. :)

Posts may use any of the Perl Monks Approved HTML tags. Currently these include the following:
<code> <a> <b> <big>
<blockquote> <br /> <dd>
<dl> <dt> <em> <font>
<h1> <h2> <h3> <h4>
<h5> <h6> <hr /> <i>
<li> <nbsp> <ol> <p>
<small> <strike> <strong>
<sub> <sup> <table>
<td> <th> <tr> <tt>
<u> <ul>
-
Snippets of code should be wrapped in
<code> tags not
<pre> tags. In fact, <pre>
tags should generally be avoided. If they must
be used, extreme care should be
taken to ensure that their contents do not
have long lines (<70 chars), in order to prevent
horizontal scrolling (and possible janitor
intervention).
