Yes, check out the Folder icon.

Yes, its relatively easy.  I am doing this. However, it may be a little 
difficult if you want to restrict access to the owner of the data.

You always can convert the addresses into the turba import file format and 
import them.  I don't have any experience with import/export from 
turba.  Oh, yeah.  You could always convert the data into a load file and 
load the database directly with MySQL tools/commands.
