- Would the same problem occur if I'd used preupgrade?
I am not sure as I don't use preupgrade, but I would expect so for the case where a package has been updated in F9 since the snapshot of rawhide you used to do the yum upgrade.
- How can identify missing packages/settings and add them to my
current Fedora installation?
package-clean --orphans Use the --oldpackage option to rpm to force an older version to be replaced.

In general no (assuming you are going from F9 + Updates), but in some specific cases it might be.
