It's hard to answer, I don't know your task and requirements.

It would be nice. If you provide mount time speeds with depending on how 
many data is placed on flash, it would be nice. I then add these numbers 
to the JFFS3 document for reference (the brief description of your 
system would be useful as well).

Design is even not ready yet. But I'd say it could take 4-6 months
depending on requirements, fetures to implement, people involved, etc.

No. JFFS (even not JFFS2, but the Linux Page Cache) split on *RAM* page 
boundary which is PAGE_SIZE bytes big and is, as a rule, 4KiB. And 4KiB 
is a JFFS2's lovely size :-)
