Yes, that's what I thought, but wasn't sure. It expect it will be essentially unchanged from when the A8 first appeared for the whole D2 life.

On "CD" block of wires on your RNS-S there's also "switched" +12v pin. Just like on the line-out block. Take your tester and check.

Yes, I was going to do that. It did occur to me that might be controlled by the RNS rather than the ignition, which is what I ideally want.
