I believe so, although not me personally.

Technically, no.  In reality, yes.  Many people seem to have found
increased stability problems with removable media (i.e. they are more
susceptible to filesystem corruption).

I don't think so, at least not yet.

Take a look at the newer Zip HOWTO, it should be in:

ftp://ftp.macbsd.com/pub/NetBSD/docs/notes/

except perhaps for the greater size of the Jaz cartridge, the rest of the
settings quoted in that document for use with Mkfs should work with the
Jaz, I think.  Please let us know how it goes!

Later.
