Yes, but somebody could fill less lines showing you how to do it.
The key is to look for window names, binding the respective 'regexp' with
actual Ion frames. the procedure is indeed in the Ion help pages.

Yes, you could change colors editing the module lookcommon_*.lua, depending
on the theme actually used.

Very possible, you don't need to change anything to achieve your goal.
On Linux systems the META key is usually left-ALT.
press META + K + Q to bind the next command to another program.
Example: META + K + Q => F10 to exit from "mc".
Alternatively you could bind some special commands like this (note: the module
used is 'ioncore', the ioncore's function used is: "exec_on"):
bdoc("SLEEP"),
kpress("XF86Sleep", "ioncore.exec_on(_, 'xset dpms force off')")
(Put to sleep your monitor).
Bye.
