This is fairly straight forward
AddToFunc my_iconify I Iconify on
+ I Prev (CurrentPage !Iconic) FlipFocus

This is tough. I don't know of a way of telling that there isn't a
currently focussed window.

Have you tried "Current (!Visible)"?

This might be very convoluted but $w is zero if there isn't a focussed
window so you might be able to do something like
+ I PipeRead <script> $w
and have a script that prints out "NextFocus" if arg1 is 0

You're not the first person to ask for a !CurrentPage test. If you get
stuck enter a bug report (with a patch please).
