Default SE-COMM add-on to ATP-MEL

I've got a student who flies for a major. He's got a PPL-SEL, as well as an ATP-MEL. He wants to do a commercial add-on for SEL privileges.

From reading the commercial PTS, it looks as though only the items marked ASEL are likely to be tested. Chandelles, lazy eights, eights-on pylons, and maybe some of the short field stuff. Everything else he has demonstrated on other checkrides. Is this correct?

Second Question: If he wanted to combine that checkride with a CFI-SE checkride (not initial, already a CFII/MEI), is that possible? Does the CFI have to be a separate checkride? If a CFI candidate can demonstrate instructional ability from the right seat while demonstrating Commercial SE maneuvers, does that qualify?

Thanks.
