There is one, it's called "fixed."  Or you can use a slider or hinge 
with both stops at zero degrees.

There's an entry about this in the FAQ.  If it's slow moving, using just 
a geom without a body will work.  If not, you can use some joint such as 
a motor to do it.

No, not until someone writes it and submits it.
