NO! Well, not sure, but generally, some things change, either on the client, or on thhe repository side. Connecting incompatible versions could screw up your repository.
BTW, I thought there was a check since 1.3.x, so the client will disconnect.
What do you mean with the opposite? You cannot access a designer client from the repository. Unless you mean Developer V6.

no. jdeveloper Enterprise Edition should be able to (expected RSN)

I don't think, that Designer (and Developer) V6 is a major release, but rater a renamed patch version of Designer 2.1.2 (check the functionality)
And yes, it is confusing, but Oracle is trying. The only reason there never was a Designer V2.0, is that Developer 2.1 superseeded dev2k 2.0 so fast, the Designer developement team decided to support that version, so they called Designer V2.1 (as it supports Developer V2.1)
Same is true for V6.
