Please check in at the airport". Worried that in the time it takes me to get from 2E to the check-in desk, sort out the problem, and rush back to 2E, I will miss my flight.

This is my first time to either France or the US. Are they obligated to put me on the next available flight if I miss it?
Simply go to the Air France desk in Dublin and check in there, they'll be able to check you in for both Dublin -> Paris leg as well as the Paris -> New York leg, you'll get both boarding passes as well.
