This is a new one on me but you can hide that annoying Newstand icon in a folder by way of a small bug. It involved creating a new folder with 2 apps and the instant you have done this, you need to drag the Newstand icon down into this folder too. This is stock IOS 5, not a jail break. See the screenshot from my iPhone:

AFAIK, no on all counts.Is there any ways you can drag folder, delete entire folder, delete multiple apps together and close multiple open apps together in ios5 but I am on ios4 jb with cydia
Recent posts are listing the huge value of the new Newstand icon (folder). If you don't want to see it on the main page, move it to the last open page. That way you won't have to look at it (since that appears to be your irritation point). It is built-in to iOS5 so you can't remove it. But, those that use subscription magazine think it is fabulous.
