If Bungie did include that feature for others to be observers in a game and attach themselves to other players.

One was that of course you can escape the kill volumes by zeroing the kill volume block's count, or by making the biped not take any damage. But even if you said the biped couldn't take damage, there was still a zone where anything past it, the engine just says 'lololololol object_delete(*.*)'. So not only would you have to figure out how to make the game ignore the clipping but also not delete you. The reason why film playback allows you to go above and beyond is because you're just an observer, you're not actually possessing an invisible monitor or anything so the game can't object_delete(you) and thus we're get these panoramas of bananoramas.
Did you ever get the spectator mode working?

Tried it in the beta and it didn't work as expected (but it did work to some extent...just couldn't view the game, but you could hear things around where your observer was spawned). Haven't tried it in the retail versions, not really a high priority of mine

I would just have to ask, not as a practical question; but if the game "deleted" your camera what would you be viewing?

It would either reset you to a default location, or you'd be seeing a black screen.

1.- First of all, the barriers of Halo 3 maps are "Elastic".
2.- You can overpass that, but with huge work
3.- you cannot go so far because there are lots of death barriers behind the elastic barrier
4.- there are not a bsp editor or viewer yet
