Is it normal for the spindle to come down from HOME after power down? Mine does this and I read a comment that someone elses does too on another thread.

Assuming you are using the spindle with the air balancer, it is normal when you remove the air from the device after shutting down. I use a block to keep it from setting all the way down, and just re-home after each start-up.

In a word...

"Yep"

Right after you lose air pressure. Just remember to take out the tool bit or you'll find a rather heavy spindle resting on a small bit.

Yep mine was a newly chipped 1/2 end mill.

Got a pc of wood in it at night now.
