Jeff,
Taking #3 for a minute. If You have three Campaigns and a rule to, say, switch dialing modes based on the number of Agents, then you could have one Rule that applies to all three campaigns and you would want "Use Triggering Campaign" to that the rule is applied to the Campaign that caused the rule to fire.
If, however, you have a campaign that is high priority, and a second one that is low, you might want to apply a rule to the first one that, based on some metric (like, say number of Agents) could pause the other one. In this instance, since one campaign is effectively controlling a second one, you would not want to use the Triggering campaign.
I hope that makes sense?
