> 2) lens coding benefits vignetting on wide angles

Possible simple explanation for this - the coding tells the JPG
writing routine how much it needs to boost corner exposure based on
the focal length. I suppose it could tell the sensor itself to give
more exposure in those areas shooting RAW, but I suspect that's mostly
a JPG feature.
