the middle one is the duration of the selected region IIRC

not directly, but indirectly yes:
 - select a range, possibliy very precise by using the toolbar
 - paste silence: moves all footage /after/ the current location
   on all armed tracs to the left, so the selected range only
   contains silence (or no video).

"Locator" ist a not so common name for the "current position" or the "cursor"
or the "playhead position" on the timeline. Numpad= the numeric keys on the
right of the standard keyborad. See
http://www.ftconsult.com/twiki/bin/view/Cinelerra/TransportControls

For me, especially the "1" (frame forward) and "4" (frame back) are of much
use. When trimming, I navigate with this keys and then press the "l" to set
a label at the desired position. I can then use this label to actually
do the trim (as you have alredy noted, while trimming the update of the
image is not working correctly, so it is difficult to find the right cutting
location)

If you start moving in single frames, you will note a somewhat odd behaviour
of cinelerra. This is by intention of the original author (I myself find it
rather annoying and could thing of other conventions):
Cinelerra plays/displays a given frame, when the locator has /passed over/
the frame. Intuitively one would expect the playback to happen when the first
touches the frame (or still better, if the locator wasn't always placed on
locations between two frames, but in the middle of the frame)


Cheers,
