Yes. But see the answer to 2) below.

At the moment, if you specify just "foo.uss", then it will be saved in the
current directory. If you want in the savestate_path then you need to
specify "$(FILE_PATH)/savestate_path". Alternatively, you can use an absolute
path.
This behaviour will change, however. The desired behaviour is that when you
specify "foo.us" it will be saved in the savestate_path.

Yes.
