I wonder if you could combine this with Power over Ethernet to also charge the device?

I would imagine you probably could if you rewired the dongles

Yes you technically can. POE to Usb-c 5v adapters exist but they're mostly intended for powering an SBC and in my experience they struggle with the current even an SBC can pull.

Yes, but theres not much of a market for it right now sadly :(
