The default options since SuSe 9.x have been for TCP and NFSv3 by default. It is still worth it to declare it in /etc/fstab for the sake of clarity.
I wouldn't put any money on that statement! Regularly we have a system falling back to udp and using NFS-2; Thus trunkating and corrupting the xen-images that are all way larger than 2GB (all of them are between 6 and 20GB)
I wouldn't write something I hadn't checked.

Other nice "feature" is that sometimes portmapper does not come up after a unplanned reboot, causing very long delays.
Portmap relies on both the syslog service and the network service to come up before it will, the problem with hard reboots usually lies within those two coming back up in my experience.
