We do this already. A couple of lines of Javascript added to your blog 
template, and you have a blogroll that is always in sync with your 
Bloglines subscriptions.

We do this already as well. In addition, you can mark specific 
subscriptions and/or folders as private, which means they will not show 
up in your blogroll. For more information on our blogroll and export 
functionality, please see http://www.bloglines.com/help/share

Also, some people are using the MT-Outliner plugin for Moveable Type, 
found at http://www.cxliv.org/jayseae/movable_type/outliner/index.html 
to process the OPML exported from Bloglines.

We don't yet do this, although it's on the to-do list.
