A medial wall mask is used to mask out data for at least cifti files.  It
is hard to say for sure (the volume to surface mapping is more involved
than the closest vertex logic used in the GUI to identify a vertex), but I
would guess that both get masked out by the medial wall currently.  Future
registrations might make the edge of the medial wall mask closer to the
location where the cortical sheet ends (but that won't affect your second
question).
