Some of it is, some of it isn't. The VAST majority of it is, but each server op puts their own spin on things.
The thing to remember is, there are two parts to a server. The game dynamics, and the content. The majority of the game dynamics are handled by the EQEmu server piece (which is eqemulator.net) and the majority of the content is handled by the database (typically PEQ or Angelox).
The vanilla server (EQEmu + PEQ) mirrors EQLive in most aspects, as far as content and dynamics. I believe PEQ has content populated and available through 95% of Luclin, some (or all of) LoY, and most of PoP, but each ServerOp is independent of PEQ and EQEmu, so they could (in theory) completely rebuild the way the game dynamics run and the database content, and many successful servers have done this. You would have to log in and play on a few to see what I mean.

Not to my knowledge. I haven't found anyone willing to post a custom UI, and frankly, I haven't taken the time to customize one myself. It's all XML, so if you'd like to build it, post it here and help the community out. That's how we continue to learn and grow.

That's a conversation between you and ServerOps/GMs for whichever server you choose. It CAN be done, but the question is, would they do it? I wouldn't, but I run a legit PvP server, so putting your EQLive toons into the mix, would likely unbalance things.

From my experience, any PC from the last 4 years can host the server, without many issues, especially using dynamic zone launchers

You don't need EQEmu 0.7.0, that is the server. To play on someone else's (or your own) server, you need Everquest Titanium. You can buy it at the store for $20, no other version is supported (read as: get Titanium if you want to play).
