1. Will we be able to choose the culture and accepted cultures of the state?
2. Will we be able to choose the religion of the state?
3. Will we be able to choose the government type the client...

Aren't client-states and Marches two different things?

Also, I think it is pretty obvious the state religion will be that of your own country.

Culture depends on province, they get your religion and a similar government.

Will client states get generic national ideas, or will they get those from the capital they start with?

They get their own client state idea set.

Is the Form Westphalia decision being replaced/removed now? And Etruria?

If a client state becomes independent, do they revert to a historical tag? For example, after Napoleon's defeat, is the Batavian Republic going to persist, or will it find a matching available tag and turn into the Netherlands/Holland?

I don't know if this has already been answered, but can you put your own dynasty in charge of the client state? (Like Napoleon did with several client/vassal/allied states)
At the very least, you can mod it in. If you want to play iron man, this is obviously not a solution, but if you only play non-ironman singleplayer, it is a very good option.

Why would I want to create client states? Less overextension for me and no need to core? Or what's the Idea?
Can I diplo annex them later?
Think of them as vassals (and vassal cores - at least I think they're cores, they might be claims) created out of thin air.

It will be a more homogeneous nation that governs and protects lands for you. They will have the culture of the land so everything is accepted and they will protect it and I assume the ideas will help further show why they are a good choice to have.

Do they take up a diplo slot? If yes, they better bring some real advantage other than being culturally united vassals - or I fear that I will not use them much, even though it's nice to create a nation with its own name and flag ...
