Hello,
If you are using Quotes Plus via plugin you can get most of fundamentals
using GetExtraData function:

Not yet, but use GetExtraData instead.

Yes. All fundamentals are accessible via AMiBroker OLE interface,
see properties of Stock object (Automation Object model section of the guide),
as you can access OLE from scripting,
you can access them from AFL.
Example:
EnableScript("jscript");
ticker=Name();
<%
AB = AFL.CreateObject("Broker.Application");
AFL("income1")=AB.Stocks(AFL("ticker")).FinanceIncome(0);
AFL("income2")=AB.Stocks(AFL("ticker")).FinanceIncome(1);
AFL("income3")=AB.Stocks(AFL("ticker")).FinanceIncome(2);
AFL("income4")=AB.Stocks(AFL("ticker")).FinanceIncome(3);
%>
AddColumn(income1, "Income 1st quarter" );
AddColumn(income2, "Income 2nd quarter" );
AddColumn(income3, "Income 3rd quarter" );
AddColumn(income4, "Income 4th quarter" );
Filter=BarIndex()==BarCount-1;

Yes, the same way as shown above (properties of Stock object are writable)

You can re-use existing fields (including OpenInt that is not used for stocks),
or you can use artifical ticker for that (say MSFT-DATA).
It is also possible to write a data plugin that will allow that.

One day this will be added but right now I am working on backtester enhancements.
Hope this helps.
