The chip itself is capable of (e)DP hot-plugging, so the signals suggest.
See the previous discussions about what to expect on the output side.
Currently, the driver does not handle hot-plugging.

No, basically same as above. On the output side, there can be a panel,
another bridge, or some eDP plug. If the DT didn't explicitly specify
a panel or a bridge, we can still generate video output as soon as
there is valid EDID data.

Your other points went straight onto my TODO list.
