If you have room for the main to come around without chafing on the reflector, I think the backstay would be fine. I'd hate to watch/hear the main drag across that reflector though, on every tack or gybe.
I believe traditional location is on the spreader.
I have 2, 3-point bridles for each reflector. the bridles attach to the top and bottom of the reflector and ensure that the reflector remains in the proper orientation (so called "catch water" orientation). the 3 points of the bridle are joined to a swivel so the whole mess can rotate about the axis.
