You mean showing the name to the left of the standard package (blue folder) image? You may be better off with an additional portal page using links. That way you can build almost any GUID

No idea whether you can tweak all config files to get what you want. As said, using an additional portal page in connection may offer better results as you are free to build whatever interface you want. You could even reuse the icon files for standard cognos items like packages, folders, reports etc.

You could try adding "direction: rtl;" to the .cctable class in the default.css.
