Unfortunately, no. CIC is indeed not able to do any of those things.
This is why the program is undocumented, it is very limited in its
current form. I have "fix cic" on my todo list, but this would take a
few months of work (point (1) is not hard, but (2) and (3) are highly
nontrivial), and due to external constraints I never got to it so far.
