(4) I have yet to meet a full dozen people who share my belief that while stego *may* be in use, if it is, that use is for one way messages of semaphore-class messages only. I really do not understand why this view is poopoo'd by all sides, so I must be pretty dense?
For semaphores and codewords, stego isn't needed. Simply agree on a signal - if a post appears in alt.anonymous.messages with the subject "To JAT", the intended recipient has got all the info he needs. Stego is needed only when the message is too complex to have a codeword. Even without software, 'numbers station' type transmissions can be sent anonymously through the net.
