MicrosoftSome nice sleuthing there Mikael Svenson. We are working on a way that you can enter more advanced query terms in the property pane.

2) It also immediately brings up the desire to do custom data mapping of custom property X to position Y in the card layouts (since you can now query and retrieve property custom property X).

Awesome news and like the direction this is going. Validation is a hard nut, and I'm guessing it's not too important as we've never had that in any web part using KQL before.
In my mind you could have a collapsed Advanced web part setting, where you have to check off to use advanced, and then you are sort of at the point of the CSWP - your own KQL, or the UI - no mix and match. If you check to use advanced, the other controls should also be disabled - which I believe is possible with the current SPFx settings.
That way you could link to https://docs.microsoft.com/en-us/sharepoint/dev/general-development/keyword-query-language-kql-syntax-reference and https://technet.microsoft.com/en-us/library/jj683123(v=office.16).aspx and be all set - more or less ;)
