Once you install the rc you won't have reinstall it's essentially just a regular update for you.

It worked in previous releases, so I would say yes. I usually still did a clean re-install (minus /home).

I would not worry about it, usually the update from RC to final is usually very small or not anything to worry about.
I used Hardy back when it was RC and I was fine when the final came.

Yep as with all of them, so long as you stay up to date on updates then you will have the final release.

There's no real difference between 1 day and the next, in terms of updates. Alpha, Beta, RC etc are basically just milestones. It's likely that on release day there'll be only a couple of updates, if you've been keeping your system up-to-date.
