I really like these guidelines and I wish I had know about them 
earlier.  I certainly intend to use them, except for...
"...the notes field for a lujvo should not explain which gismu it is composed of..."

Why so?

jvoblaste should be, among other things, a tool for learning by newbies.  Having 
the origin of the lujvo in the Notes is really helpful and takes vitually no space at all.
