\setupexternalfigures[directory={...,...,...}]

yes, since it determines the page to pick up; of course you can also direct 
the page directly using

\externalfigure[somefile.pdf][page=3]

>/Subtype /Link /Border [0 0 0] /A <</S /GoTo /D (about: fig-one)>>

it could be done if pdftex supported access to named pages; parsing the 
file using tex macros is not doable (well, partially, but a pain for 500 
meg files)

no, in spec-fdf, add a space after #6 in:

  \xdef\currentPDFviewerprefs
    {\ifcase#6 \or\or\or /View...


PS. The fig lib mechanism will be replaced (extended) by a more versatile 
resource library system (working on that now)
