#1 - Yes... I've encountered the issue you describe in 8i but not yet in 9i

#2 - Yes the comment lines are still # in 9i when you do an alter controlfile to trace

Since Server Manager is gone in V9 (right?), I have been converting my old, v7 based, UNIX utilities and manual procedures to use sqlplus and have run into a couple of problems/annoyances:

Interactive shutdown normal from sqlplus (/ as sysdba) is interrupted by a cntrl-C and sqlplus session exited. The only way to connect again without a "Shutdown in progress" error was via svrgmrl/internal. Has anyone run into this on V9 instance and had to resort to Unix kills?
The # is an acceptable comment delimiter in SVRMGR but is completely ignored in sqlplus. Not good if you are commenting out DML/DDL (what were they thinking?). In V9 does the tracefile produced by a 'backup controlfile to trace' still use the # to begin comment lines?

Thanks,
