Yes - bbpager:
http://bbtools.thelinuxcommunity.org/available.phtml#bbpager

Man-pages for bbpager and some other bbtools can be obtained from

AFAIK, no.

In Blackbox, Icons are managed kinda as a separate Desktop.  You don't
see the icons, but if you pop the root-menu and go into the
workspaces/Desktops submenu, there is a "Icons" submenu with all your
iconified icons.  Once you select an item, it is de-iconified and
restored to the (IIRC) current desktop.
