Yes, the default folder is the "root" folder of your portal.
Yes, the folder that your FCKeditor uses for the "Brower Server" option can be "changed".
As portal admin and with your forum Admin->General Settings option "Disable HTML posting" unchecked
1. start a New Thread in your forum
2. click on the "Show custom editor options" which will open the FCKeditor's custom options page
3. expand the "Other editor options" section
4. set your default folder tree
5. choose "Instance" from pulldown at bottom of dialog
6. click "Apply"
The next time you click on the Insert/Edit Image control in your FCKeditor toolbar the folder tree for the "Browse Server" option should be restricted (just like this forum).
Hint: Make sure you have set the proper Role and User permissions in Admin->File Manager

Not too sure on this one, probably need to alter the FCKeditor provider source.
I think it is one of those things where the FCKeditor's purpose is to provide broader flexibility. The first screen you see after opening the Image control on the toolbar is so users may hyperlink to image files on other websites (such as there own 3rd party online photo album). And the "Browse Server" option is made available with proper Admin->File Manager permissions.
IMO, the best place to pose these questions is in the FCKeditor Provider (Lead: Mauricio Marquez) forum. You would probably get a more accurate and faster answer.
