Is there a way to move the data dir -- and anything else
necessary, to the default locations where 10.4.4 expects them to
be?
You probably don't want to do this but rather export the data and
reimport the data.
I would if I could.
Then fix your system so you can.
But it becomes a little more difficult if we can't access the
data. Are there tools that can successfully import the data from
the individual dbs (or the whole folder, but alas I'm dreaming
here...)?
Not that I'm aware. It also misses the whole point.
Does CocoaMySQL or the latest builds of phpmyadmin have such capabilities?
These are just MySQL client apps.
So if we have found the original data, beyond the data folder, are
there other files that can/should be archieved? Separate index or
preference/settings files? I'm saving/archiving everything I can in
its natural state, but don't know what is overkill.
Probably there are other files you might want to archive, but a
general system backup is your best bet as you'll also need libraries
and a lot of other stuff too if you're ever interested in really
recreating the environment.

That neatly misses a whole shitload of stuff that's important for
recreating a mysql environment. All you're doing is copying the
datadir, and this is a very unwise move. You should dump your dbs and
import.
