Can you describe the form rule you're using for #3? I've come across the same issue where I wanted to autopopulate a field but allow it to be changed and it kept reverting to the initial value, and I resolved it by writing the form rule like this:
If [Field 1] = X and [Field 2] is blank, change [Field 2] to Y
That should allow you to change the value of Field 2 after it's been updated to Y, since at that point it's not blank so the form rule doesn't apply anymore.
Does that answer your question?

This is a good thought and works for certain situations. If I choose "Item A", it populates the default clause for Item A. Then if I want to change the clause, it lets me and I can save the revised version, etc.
However, if for any reason I need to pick another item, the clause does not update when it should. Following the example above, if now the customer requests Item B, I am still left with the revised clause for Item A.
