Install Snow Leopard Server into Mavericks (Coherence)

Hi
I have some instructions how to install Snow Leopard Server into Parallels 10, so I'm ok on that part. But there are a few unanswered questions that I'd be grateful for help with before I take the plunge:

1. While I'm installing SLS into Parallels, will it stay in windowed mode including (virtual?) Restarts, so I can get on with things in Mavericks while the installation is going on?
2. When the installation is finished, will I still be in Mavericks ready to use Parallels in Coherence mode right from the off?
3. How do I move Applications I want to use in Coherence mode into the VM and then have them in Mavericks Dock ready to launch in Coherence mode (I presume I must move the Application, preferences, Application Support folder, and any other supporting files, into the VM?)
4. How does Dropbox work with a VM? One of the apps links to my Mavericks Dropbox folder from Application Support using a symlink. Once in the VM how do I link from that app's Application Support folder to Mavericks Dropbox so it syncs like things in Mavericks?

Many thanks for any help you can give. I only want Parallels so I can run a few individual apps in Coherence - at no time do I want to be running Snow Leopard as an actual OS for any other reason.
