4.) seems like the ability to sort by a custom field is working and this is really great; is there any syntax to order items in reverse of a custom field, for example if i have a field containing years, and want to display the most recent year at the top of the list....

Sorting by a custom field? What are you talking about?
The only custom field to sort by is the creation date!?

I don't think he meant sorting in that way. I believe it was the indexing function that you fixed (so only showing (rather than ordering) results pertaining to a search from a particular custom field).

Also your update did indeed fix the issues (at least the ones I saw) regarding the field display (particularly the drop-box option and having a WYSIWYG editor next to a standard text field which would squash it).
