I believe that should work in principle, provided the eCAP service is
consulted before Squid starts evaluating "ssl_bump splice step2
classifyRequest". If you do not restrict what requests your eCAP REQMOD
service gets, then it should be consulted during step1 (at least). The
logic is the same for eCAP and ICAP here -- Squid "primary" code does
not know the difference between those two adaptation interfaces.

Yes, you should be able to. The adaptation_masterx_shared_names
directive is unrelated to setting transaction annotations IIRC. It is
about sharing metadata across adaptation services.

This option cannot work AFAICT because the "note" ACL requires a
constant (i.e. known at configuration time) annotation name. Squid will
not substitute %adapt::<last_h{splice} with anything in this context.
