For your first concern, check out
http://rackstuds.com/support/certification/
343lb shear strength per stud.
For your second concern, it will be an issue. Though the newer rails I
have dealt with are clip-in. The screw-in did not have flanges on the
bezels, but I have been lucky with what I have been buying. :)
I would love to use these! :) But my current position does not have
racks (all AWS). So, I could only use them at home.

I haven't used these, but I do have a few observations, based on viewing what
the stud things look like.
First off: how freaking awesome. For most cases, this is a sysadmin WIN. I
need to go get me some.
Caveats:
My first concern is how well these stand up for *HEAVY* equipment. Yeah, we
deal with a lot of 1u/2u things these days, but occasionally we need to load a
100+ pound BEAST. Not sure how string these are? (I assume this info is in
their product data sheet somewhere?)
My second concern is how this works for equipment that has front panels/bezels.
In many cases, the manufacturer of the rackmounted thing assumes that all that
sticks out the fron of the rack side is at most- 1/8 inch or so for the screw
head. These things stick out a lot, and COULD possibly get in the way of
certain covers/bezels.
Those concerns aside, I'm still gonna get some when they're available.....
