I see this all the time. Shower curtains and shower habits are tough on drywall. The best thing to do would be install a shower door and track that keeps the water in. Understanding that this may not be an option here are a couple other things .
1- make sure the curtain is inside the tub when shower is on.
2-point the shower head toward the other side of the wall when using shower to help spray from splashing outside curtain.
3-they make suction cups that attach to shower curtains that you can keep the curtain tight to the walls to help spray from splashing outside the curtain.
4- You can silicone a plastic strip along the tub wall to help keep water from running outside the tub...
5- make sure it isn't water from your shower valves that is leaking from the wall and running down to the drywall.
6- Purchase a Shower Leak Prevention product like the NoMorWetFloor at www.nomorwetfloor.com

What would cause rotten wood behind a shower wall?
I think you'll find the answer behind the wall! We had a problem with rotten wood behind our tub enclosure and found that the surround was installed improperly and water from the shower was leaking behind it causing the wood to rot. There could also be a problem with the plumbing behind your wall - there could be a leaky pipe causing the problem.

Leaking from where on the battery, the caps? If so the charging system may be over charging the battery and causing the acid to boil out. Could be a voltage regulator problem.

Can renters insurance protect you if you have a leaking ceiling and it caves in?
Yes, your renters policy will pay for your damages, depending on the actual cause of the damage. If it was a leak that occurred over time and finally the ceiling fell in due to the water building up on the damaged sheetrock, then the landlord would be responsible for the damage due to a lack of maintenance. If a tree fell on the home during a storm and poked a hole in it causing the damage then his policy would cover it.
