comment Sending to two bluetooth speakers at once
I've never heard of a dongle capable of connecting to 7 devices in parallel, but YMMV.

comment Sending to two bluetooth speakers at once
It is not possible unless the dongle supports it, bluetooth uses several mechanisms to make the signal harder to eavesdrop on, that requires it to send the signal twice and not the same signal. The best bet in my opinion would be to use two (preferably identical, to minimize lag differences) dongles and connect each one to one speaker.

I would like to add that allowing vim as root without password is horrible security-wise.

comment remount chrooted read-only subdirectory (non-mountpoint) to read-write from within jail?
LVM is usually used to merge large disks, but it's purpose is both to merge large disks and to split disks to smaller volumes than what the traditional partitioning enables.

Loop volumes should be simplest to use in this case, you can also use LVM if it's the hassle of partitioning you are looking to avoid.

Why not just move the data to a new partition?

comment remount chrooted read-only subdirectory (non-mountpoint) to read-write from within jail?
If you chroot to a non mountpoint directory, you will not be able to modify the mount option since the chrooted environment needs access to the mountpoint (which is above it's root, hence it's inaccessible). The directory you chroot to needs to be a mountpoint...

comment Masquerading as another user from sudoers file?
Masquerading is done using the -u switch in sudo, the user doing the masquerading should have permissions to run the command in question as the user you want it to masquerade. In your case alice should be able to run the binaries in /sbin /usr/bin and /bin as any member of the Children group, but the member of the children group must be mentioned with the -u switch.
