in this case yes. if not, the path will be built as
typo3/mod/tools/em/ajax.php
because this script calls the JS. So we never know who is calling the script 
from which path.

This looks complicate. We have $this->backpath for paths, maybe we need 
simular for urls.

no, i checked the return of the function: complete html.Init is ok.
So error is somewhere updating the div, i will investigate further

btw: while checking JS in backend.php it seems, that some of it is never 
used in new backend. I'm not sure but there are many things we could drop. 
It would be the best to do this in next time, later it will be more 
diffucult to know if a snippet is really needed.
Also used JS could be converted to selectors instead of those 
getElementById.
