Re: Imladris
"Who commanded the flood?", asked Frodo.
"Elrond", replied Gandalf,"the river is under his command".
Apologies if I have not quoted exactly, since I`m relying on memory. Whilst one does not like to assume too much, I consider that to be fairly concrete.
As far as Elrond being more powerful than Glorfindel, it is merely conjecture on my part, as I made clear in my earlier post. Feel free to disagree with my opinion. I would only add that Elrond has (admittedly diluted) Maiar blood. I would also disagree with your assumption that being descended from all three Houses of the Edain could be regarded as a racial disadvantage.
