It gets diseminated to the relevant civil sector which controls the "GAT" part of the route. For that part which is outside that portion it will normally be addressed to the relevant Military controlling sector.
Yes, it is. However, any errors in the plan may have got through the CFMU check system due to the OAT portion of the plan. The sector will still handle the flight, through the GAT portion of the flight, like any other GAT (Civil) flight
See above
Yes, but expect a delay in getting the clearance for trying to be a smart alec 
If you're really lucky you'll get someone throw it back at you before you ask for engine start and ask for something more meaningful to what you're trying to achieve. If I was called for a clearance based on that type of FPL I'd hope you'd have some holding fuel while something was sorted. The Controller you would call would know his patch intimately - but it's how you're handled by the next person and the next one after that that has to be considered too.
If it passes the CFMU checking website, and gets accepted by Eurocontrol, then surely it is within the system. If not, which part is not within the system?
Either the FP is distributed to the sector controllers, or not.
On a related matter, presumably, if somebody filed a FP using your VORrrrddd notation and thus avoided all checking, ATC would still know the destination and would just send you along a rough route. Each controller must know his little patch (and the permitted routes) intimately.

I have heard various one-line tales - never supported with actual examples - of people using clever DCT tricks to get around CFMU. Would these be legal DCTs, or something else?
Bear in mind that the whole reason people look for these tricks is because there is no publicly accessible airways autorouting facility, and central Europe tends to be a ba*tard to find routes in. The ASA site is good but not good enough, and Flitestar is generally worse.
