Another question... when you've strapped a sleeping roll, tent, and sleeping bag to this backpack, does the built-in rain cover still cover everything?

It will depend on how much everything sticks out, I had a tripod strapped on the outside and the rain cover went over it fine with room to spare. However if you have a somewhat wide sleeping pad strapped on horizontally like a lot of people do I doubt it would cover that. I'll go see how much I can fit between the cover and outside of backpack and report back. edit: pictures below
