Question #2 - but do you think spray painting the bottom of the bag with that paint might serve the same purpose (assuming the paint adhered to the vinyl)?
Question #3 - Do I absolutely need saddle bag supports?

1) I'm not so sure about vinyl. Mine are heavy leather but they have only about 1/2 inch clearance most of the time.
2) No. Not even close. If you need anything at all, you need something to spread the heat out and disipate it. Paint won't do that.
3) Maybe not. You might be able to tie them to the springs via a couple of holes poked through the back and achieve a similar result. The objective is to make it impossible for them to contact the rear wheel. It's your skull at risk!!
Good luck!
