It would be a major plus for UA passengers. SFO is the entry point for many TPAC flights and although they have an Arrivals lounge with showers for premium class travelers, they do do not have showers at their United Club for all the other passengers connecting at SFO from long-haul international flights.
Yes, I think the consensus guess here on FT is that it will be airside. That's my guess, at least. I doubt very much that there will be any sort of airside connection from T2, T1 or International-A. But, if someone has Pre-check or priority security access, and enough time to justify it, a landside walk over to the new lounge might be worth it.
