Lyft indeed pushed an update for iOS today, which I just installed. I tried specifying BoardWalk Inn as pickup and Magic Kingdom as drop-off but only got the regular options. (I had assumed it would simply be based on specifying a pickup location on property.) Like you, I'm not there yet -- but I will be tomorrow (staying at BWI), so I'll check again then.
I read somewhere the other day that they were using the Lyft app for now (while in the testing phase) and then Disney will roll out its own app.
Not sure why they'd go to the airport when they already have DME, although I guess you could argue the same for the internal transportation. The problem with having them go off property at all is the effect it would have on the overall system. Keeping it in WDW limits the number of vehicles they need, and also allows them to avoid dealing with luggage. There's also no way they'd do it for $20.
depending on the pay, with the way uber is currently treating its drivers i could see some of them wanting to apply to be a minnie van driver instead, though it takes away the whole 'be your own boss' thing
No -- both Lyft and Uber were still available on property as of yesterday.

Those who need to know, know what that is.
For those without children, they're a brand of child/baby car seats.
I'd like to thank Google for the assist.
