if the screen supports HDCP - yes! from what i read i would say yes but can't confirm it. someone else will have to step in to answer this.

it should work as it's only power. hm, i guess a normal USB A to C cable would have done it as you don't really need the extended wifi thing...

I just picked up my i7 today. Haven't played too much with teh Theater Screen, however what use case do you have for the Roku compared to the built-in Amazon Fire & related available streaming apps?

The only thing I can personally think of is I find the required mixed-use of the door controls and on-screen controls annoying. With the Roku, atleast you would have a dedicated physical remote control.
