2) As with 1, if you keep both fairly even then you're pretty well set since they share a very similar curve.
3) Due to skill trees that do not provide a benefit for crits, Power actually has a very high rating and has no diminishing returns. Power is quite good. I would advocate stacking Power and an even amount of Crit/Surge second.
4) Power.
5) For regular enemies, use it right away. For strong enemies, use it when Rail Shot is on cooldown.
6) 100% for regular attacks is needed to get Rapid Shots to hit properly and you're going to be using that skill a LOT. 329 rating is what you need at 50. You seem to be already there.

Asmiroth, thanks for the reply.

The only ability that I can see that benefits from crit is the reduction of the CD on TSO through Automated Defenses.
