the point of the transition, and the continuous NPCs is,a nd has always been, if you have an NPC in yr party when you transition, and they have are joinable in the BG2 portion of a BP+ game, then when you find them, they'll have the stats they had at the point of transition.
there have been numerous plans to change the plot of BG2 - to allow differnt NPCs to be with you in Irenicus' dungeon, etc - but with the partial exception of NEJ2, none have ever made it past the vapourware stage.

i'm not sure what yr asking about. there's never been any intent in BGT to change the plot of BG2 (other than the transition itself): so that if Ajantis dies in BG2, he dies in BP/ BGT/ BP+BGT/ BP+BGT+ games; if Alora stays in the BG1 world, she stays in the BGT world, etc.

I was under the impression that you could carry over any NPC from BG1 into BG2, but it seems that's only true of those characters that go to BG2 anyway (eg. Minsc, Jaheira, Viconia, Edwin, Imoen). So I can't bring Xzar or Ajantis or Safana with me to BG2?

I think some major mods change it - but you will, of course, not have any banter with the NPCs then.
