I've never thought about something like this. Feel free to announce
whereever you think it's appropriate ;)

No.

Sure. But I think it could be quite challenging depending on what you
want to achieve. Simply make :set VAR=VALUE an alternative to (setq
VAR VALUE) should not be too difficult. But this would only work for
Emacs variables. If you want give appropriate mappings of Vim variable
names to Emacs settings, then this is probably much more difficult. In
particular, because not every Vim setting has a direct counterpart but
may need several adjustments. But I think it would be a nice feature
to have ... ;)
