No, there's no such thing as a global admin.
You can use header-admin-user to log into each domains setup, but that's 
all.

Not that I know, thought I expect we will have a new community install 
in the next month.

We usually use an o=domain.com,dc=local as base for each instance, 
domain.com matches the email domain, so a mail-server can work on 
dc=local to server all domains. An EGroupware instance use only it's own 
o=something, and can so not interfere with other domains.

Anyway if you think about hosting EGroupware, you might want to give 
Andre a call about reselling our hosting ...
