she automatically loses the pot to whoever was left at showdown.

I don't want to sway the discussion, but this was my impression as well. However, when I brought this up to the floor away from the table as I was leaving (I didn't identify the player) as a "hypothetical", he told me it was the player's responsibility to protect their hand so the angle-shooter gets the pot in cases 1 and 2, and that in case 3 where the cards are just a few inches in front of him - the dealer should state what the hand actually is and give a chance for the player to flip his cards back over.
I didn't ask about situation 4.
