5) How come the alert tone/volume is wake-the-dead loud even though I have all the volumes set for 20%?

OKay so I figured this out. When you are using whatever app or setting it is that makes the godawful noise, press the volume key and then you get a dual control.
I had to take a picture of it because the screenshot didn't capture the overlay of controls.

An easier way is to tap the volume (whether you are at the home screen or in an app) and then tap that gear icon at the bottom.  This will give you a screen where you can set the volume for all the different options (Media volume, Call volume, Ring volume, Alarm volume).  It also allows you to set the default sounds for the various options.  It is the same screen as what you get to when you go to Settings->Sound, but it is a faster way to get there.

I did that, but it didn't help. I set them all and nada - unless I do the scrolly sidebar thingy.

Odd.  My Ring volume setting matches perfectly with the bell volume in that double slider popup.
