This would let us use private nodes or chains other than the mainnet

Good point - I've seen a lot of private rpc usage. I can add that in. Although with the bundled transaction format, there are many fewer transactions and rate limits shouldn't be a problem.

Actually, I don't think this really works. Non-main net chains don't work because you need to have actually transferred SOL in order to pay for the signing of the AR transaction, which only has a mainnet, no dev net. Also, the concept of submitting a url to the signing service that it then uses to sign is beyond the scope of the service. Users submit signed, but unsubmitted transactions to the service api. It is then up to the service api to decide where it wants to submit those transactions to get them recorded and verified.

Actually - it works with Devnet Solana, with the tool in Metaplex. There may be some restrictions on the file-size, but it's good for testing.

I think they are paying actual AR to make that work. One difference here is that the process stops after the file load and doesn't do anything with Solana (other than completing the funding transaction), so if you wanted to test with a small number of small files, the cost of doing that is almost negligible. You would just send those through as you would the normal ones and then check the links.
