Help
I've being looking at appeal cases for a long time.
I have not noticed a case about people asking about carding methods.
As a player I don't recall anyone telling me about such a case from either side - director decision or appeal.
This has always seemed slightly odd to me, but that is my impression. If this represents a new battlefield opening, I await with interest.
Possibly inappropriate questions

You could want to know a lot of things. However Law 73F says that if you had no demonstrable bridge reason to ask a question, do not be surprised if your board gets adjusted (usually at the NABC+ level I think) because:
It is a perfectly normal directing decision at any level: why NABC+?

No, I do not think they are common, But remember a discussion after such a question in the Spring Foursomes sometime around 1970.

Declarer can ask anything anytime and "What's your style?" (in whatever carding or bidding situation) works for me. So does "none" as a response.
If the question is something like "Does that show or deny the Queen?" when they are looking at it, the laws account for it. I believe boiling in oil is the recommended penalty.
Defenders must be careful not to ask something or in a manner that transmits UI.
Dummy should never ask anything except, "I'm going to the bar, would anyone like anything?"
