(although, I'm sure the game designers didn't think of this...).

I think you hit the nail on the head. They simply never thought about the circumstance below (which is exactly the one I was thinking of)

Q269: Can someone be made an unwilling lich through any means?

Ahem, yes. It is mentioned that this is possible for a Good Lich.

I'm going to go with the dangerously theoretical position that even without destruction of the phylactery, a lich could decide to die. Since the phylactery is seen simply as a 'wait for your auto true res because it has your soul' box. Alternatively they could chose to pass on during the wait period for the reincarnation.

A272: Because of the 'level adjustment' and 'class level' language in the description of what a bloodline is, I would say definately not. Furthermore the rules don't say you can take more than one, and indeed have rather large restrictions on when you can take the [virtual] levels in the first place.

It doesn't say that anywhere, that's perfectly legal as long as the DM allows UA variants.

Q273: Can someone point me to the FAQ/Custserv quote/ruling/whatever that says that early entry methods like Eldritch Corruption, Versatile Spellcaster + Heighten and Precocious Apprentice are, if not kosher, at least legal?
