Yes, that’s a good thing to have, and it’ll be part of the wrap-up sessions.

In principle, yes.

In practice, I’d imagine that having an ad-hoc discussions with a few people in a quiet physical spot doesn’t quite translate into a virtual setup where we have a fixed room setup. There’ll be chat, but for the video rooms we'll have to prioritise, and putting your topic up rather sooner than later helps with that. Then we’ll see how many free slots are left in the virtual space-time continuum.

Of course, nobody stops anyone from meeting in a parallel virtual Universe, be it on matrix or libera or whatever system people can agree on.
