1) Our translator override properties that you say are for resource-adapters, are being returned on the following call:

*Admin.getTemplatePropertyDefinitions(translator.getName())*

... so we assumed that this method is actually returning property definitions for the Translator with the given name.

Lastly, the Teiid/product documentation defines a CDK (aka Connector) which defines the concept of a Connector which includes both a Translator and a Resource Adapter definition.  (See Figure 1.1. JBoss Data Virtualization Architectural Overview)
