Missions & Complexes

I have some questions about the consequences of low standings towards a faction.

I read that if my standing toward a faction (Gallente, in my case) is low enough, that I will be fired upon by their navy when I enter their space. However, this is the extent of the info that I have been able to find.

So my questions are these:

Will they instantly fire on site?
Do I get any sort of grace period, like a 10 sec head start?
Do they have instant lock on?
Am I able to enter their space if I move fast enough?
Will they follow me, like CONCORD, or can I fly to a friendly station in system or other celestial?
Can I cloak to avoid being shot at?
Do they point me, or can I just tank their shots while I warp off?

Basically, I'm trying to find out how much of a hassle this can become. I'm wanting to do lvl 4 caldari security missions, and get tags, but I make the Gallente upset far faster than I can ever make up for it. (Seriously, 1 mission against Gallente and I plummet. 4325324958239458 missions for them and I go up 0.01%)

However, I'm almost always flying through Gallente space with an alt and with my corp mates. I'm trying to find a balance, if any can be found, between operating in Gallente space and doing caldari missions.

Just gonna leave 'The Plan' here for future reference.
