Absolutely. These are not likely to ever change, and certainly
won't change in the 2.x series.

At the moment I don't have an "include page from field" feature
planned. I do have a "make some pages shareable among several
fields" feature planned, in which case one would use the standard
(:include:) directive.
One potential issue with doing cross-field includes in this manner is
that any sitewide passwords of the remote field won't be applied to
the included pages.

Looks fine to me -- since (:includefield:) is based on PmWiki's
(:include:) code it has to be GPL-licensed.

Duplicating the readpage() function seems to be very overkill --
you should just be able to create a PageStore object that points
to the field's wiki.d directory and then use it to read the pages.
