No it's actually quite unusual in CMF, I think. I sure never seen anybody do it.

Yeah, well that is a completely flawed hack you shouldn't need to
resort to in an object-environment, since the object itself should be
able to return the correct HTML directly. I would create a default
view for the portal type in qestion that returns the content you want
returned.

Probably, yes.

Five has no special handling for index_html, so yes, it should work.
