6. Rehearsals might give one-time bonuses, as the OP suggested, for certain very specific tasks. I would not give a bonus for the whole skill over the course of a whole adventure.

If the group is using Action! and its Basic Abstract Difficulty concept, it might make sense for the mockup training to reduce the BAD for the camp raid scene. That could be a bonus to multiple skills - but in the limited context of that which was rehearsed.
(Since plans always go awry in action movies, it might even be good to use a strict definition of "that which was rehearsed". So when the PCs have to deviate from the script and improvise, their heroism comes to the fore. It would have been an easy raid without the difficulty, but once the BAD jumps back up when they go off track, those high skills become necessary rather than overkill, showing why we needed the l33t heroes and not just any schmoes with lots of practice.)
