An option for output width (equivalent to
option (width=...)
is available in Settings->Configure RKWard->R-Backend. You're probably right
that it would make sense to move this and a few others options to the console
page of the settings.

Yes. The easiest way (not available with all, but with most window managers)
is to bring up the context menu, then click the right mouse button over "copy
cleaned"->Configure Shortcut.
You can also use Settings->Configure Shortcuts. The catch is that the console
needs to have focus when you do so, as only the shortcuts of the active window
can be configured.
Occasionally there are issues with disappearing shortcuts, and be warned: In
0.5.3 there were even crashes when configuring shortcuts under some
circumstances (fixed in our SVN version).

You mean the on-screen plot windows? Simply fire up a new one using
x11()
on the console. Use
dev.set()
to activate a specific one (or use Device->Make active) before sending plot
commands.

This is really not user-friendly, ATM. Use the "Pending Jobs" tool window.
Select the commands to cancel (usually the topmost one) and press "Cancel
selected commands". Improving this is definitely on my TODO list...
For commands that you have entered in the console, Ctrl+C will work, too.
