Border is OK, but white back ground is a bit difficult, because it requires "!important" option. If I hard code "!important", it can conflict with userChrome.css or user's theme. So I believe a extension author should not use "!important" in any style sheet.
As for it displaying the size/date in the status bar, that would probably cause problems (hits to the site everytime you went over a link) - it would look good though.
Exactly. When a user move mouse cursor quickly, some 20 or 30 hover events can be dispatched for a instance. statusbar handler ignores if anchor href is equal to current status bar url. So overwriting may cause some trouble. Though I'll try it, anyway.
Can't get file sizes for some links though - perhaps due to Pragma: no-cache in the header and/or the response not containing Content-Length. Sometimes last modified isn't returned either. Those seem to be webserver issues rather than browser issues.
Yes. In theory, even if header doesn't contains Content-Length, user agent can get size via "chunked" transfer-coding in advance. But it's difficult to implement it only with script.

hmm... This is not only for techsavy users even though it might used only by them. I don't mind either of them is. Or dividing with 1000 instead of 1024 is also OK.
