1) If the DNLA server (Kodi) has plugin://plugin.video.netflix/somecontent in the library pointing to a movie does that get shared out?? If you play that on another machine will it request you install the addon, play and stream, or fail
Basically anything that has been imported will not be synced to any other client. Otherwise you will always end up with URLs that you can't handle. And you might end up with syncing something back to the same instance from which you have actually imported the item.

I don't understand the question. Why should something be synced when it isn't?

Right now there's no duplicate handling so if you import an item that you also have locally you will see both in your library.
