Assuming with a connection that long, and different airports, that I'll need to pick up luggage after clearing customs & recheck in the morning? (That there's no automatic airport transfer for luggage and/or a 24-hour + layover would time out anyway?)
Yes, no automatic transfer of luggage. You'll need to claim your bags at LAX then take them with you to the hotel or wherever you spend the night, then re-check in again at ONT the next morning.
