Dear Christoph,

(I don't believe that this question was answered; my apologies if it was.)

You can use identify() with horizontal coordinates at 1 (and at successive
integers for parallel boxplots); e.g.,

x <- c(rnorm(98), 8, 10)
boxplot(x)
identify(rep(1, 100), x)

Not to my knowledge.

I hope this helps.
