No, the other types are only for specific cases. If you have the 1.0 bootloader then you should use standard.

b) Did I read correctly somewhere that I should ALWAYS launch the bootloader before trying to reflash (it's kind of a blur, but I vaguely remember reading somewhere that you CAN flash without launching the bootloader, but it's somehow riskier)

No it just saves a step, and reduces complexity. The RUU app must check your phone's CID value and it's quicker to do that from bootloader directly. If you flash the phone with it booted into Windows, it uses a different method to check the CID and then puts it into bootloader itself. It's up to you.

c) Are any of the alternate dialers (HTC Touch, etc) pictured on page 2 of this thread part of the kitchen, or are they all installed afterward? I'm particularly interested in the dialers that omit the dial/hangup buttons (since the hardkeys are right there anyway) and use the screen's full width for 3 buttons instead of 4.

Yes they are all included in the kitchen. No need to install anything else.
