This does not have a fuse, so if you try to use it you will be losing the over-current protection that the fuse provided. It will probably work, but at increased risk.
Probably, but you would be removing an important safety device (the fuse). Use at your own peril (I mean that). You fried one fuse already they are there for a reason. The wires in a string of Christmas lights are much thinner than house wire. They can only stand a few amps of current before they heat up. Hot wires on a tree is asking for a fire.
Not that I'm aware of.
Although Leviton does make versions of this item in brown, ivory and white, the only color I was able to find at my local Home Depot was white. I also did a quick search and didn't see the brown one on the Home Depot website as of Oct 13, 2017. If it's still not available, perhaps it could be special ordered from your local Home Depot.

Better to use a polarized one. The polarized plug is a safety feature. One of the wires in the cord is the hot wire, the other is neutral. The hot wire can kill you. The lamp is designed to keep the hot wire away from you. For example, the screw base of a light bulb needs to be connected to the neutral wire because it's possible to accidentally come in contact with it. The center button on the base of the bulb is well away from anywhere your (or a little one's) hands might touch. May seem like a little thing, but doing CPR on a child is the last thing I want to be doing.
The 123 should work with a polarized lamp cord.
The plug itself is not polarized. It can be inserted both ways.
It is not designed for that and wires will likely be too large for this plug
No. Only 18/2 zip cord with an 8 shaped cross section.
