A file which isn't listed in the used datfile is unneeded. Different dats, different rompaths.

Ask Logiqx ;)

Handle artwork (and flyers, snaps, etc) as roms. So simply setup a rompath for your artwork zips. Keep in mind the general scanning rule: rompath\setname\rom1...rom n (for decompressed sets) and rompath\setname.zip for zip-compressed sets. So check how the sets are defined in the dats and setup the rompath accordingly.

For new profiles, use default.
