try this one first, see if it does the job, works pretty well with max and maya, the newer version works with improvements for sketchup and blender, im currently using it in a project, however in order to hand it over on a plate for all and sundry need to strip out non project related code, so sorry (but it is free, so no right to moan). failing that write one.

I guess it is. But only if you write your own Collada interpreter. And you will not be able to save it in a native Unity format either, you will have to write your own serializer for that.

During runtime, all the Editor classes are not available to you for use, so: Yes, you are able to do so. But only if you do this yourself.

No, not to my knowledge. However, if you can settle for OBJ instead of DAE, you could use this: http://www.starscenesoftware.com/Utilities.html#ObjReader
