I can personally testify to your last question with the answer:
NO
The fields in that dumpeditems download keep changing and every time we've sourced a new item set in, we try to boot up world.exe again and are met with a bunch of "unknown column" errors. We have to effectively play whack-a-mole as we add each column back in one by one and restart world after each addition to see which column it's gonna gripe about next.
It seems they're changing field names with each CVS dump, I assume they rename the "unknown*" fields as they figure out what each of them are for. But it means you gotta have an item dump and a CVS dump that were released right about the same time as each other. Deviate too far off and you start getting a crapload of unknown column errors when you start the worldserver up.
