I did some research and it seems that reorderPages is not designed

There is none (yet) and you don't really need one. See below.
Can you point me to an example that uses IndexEvents and named
destinations, ideally in a similar way to how I plan to? I imagine
that what I'm trying to do is not that uncommon, so hopefully someone
else has done it already.
Just look at the source code
http://itextdocs.lowagie.com/src/com/lowagie/text/pdf/events/IndexEvents.java
When the document with content is built, from time to time a Chunk like
this is added:
Chunk chunk = new Chunk(text);
String tag = "idx_" + String.valueOf(indexcounter++);
chunk.setLocalDestination(tag);
In your case, you should define a unique tocTag per bookmark entry.
When you construct your ToC, you can retrieve the pagenumbers and
the names of the destinations (pagenumber and tocTag) from the bookmarks
and add a local goto like this:
Chunk pagenr = new Chunk("p" + pagenumber);
pagenr.setLocalGoto(tocTag);
