I can't say about all extensions but the core and good extension do not 
store the path anywhere and calculate it dynamically. So you can move your 
installation anywhere inside the site. However if it is not root, issues 
can happen because various versions of web servers use different ways to 
provide information to TYPO3.

I do not think so. TYPO3 will still generate URLs with /cms/ prefix. And 
you may get troubles with Google if all your URLs on the site are /cms/ and 
redirect to other URLs all the time.
