    Likely a lanyard because whatever goes in there, it does so with the grips in place. Google images is short on pictures of the hole being used and I think that this rules out the hole being there for accessories. I have custom grips on mine so the hole is covered anyway.

    Pretty sure you should just thread a thick cord through the hole to a good length and tie off... if it's there to give the nostalgia of a service item that is.

    Yes, that seems the only option.
    I should have thought of this but googling 1911 lanyard loop brings up plenty of examples and the history behind it.
    I generally use a leg holster with my HW45, but I'm thinking of trying a lanyard so that I can loop it over my shoulder.
