> I think I've just done something foolish on MV level 7. After a period of repeatedly dying in the large room early on, I hurried through it without clearing it, thinking I could come back later on with some friends. Now I believe I know how to get back in there, but if I did, I don't believe I could get out again. So my questions are:

If you can get back in, I'd love to know about it. You're not supposed to be able to.

> 1. Is it likely that I've already ruined the level (by making it impossible to earn enough to pay the troll)?

No, and...

> 2. Is it theoretically possible to get trapped on that level?

...yes, but only almost deliberately. But it has nothing to do with the big room you're talking about -- it has to do with moving the sliding walls in such a way as to block the west entrance to the big slidy-wall room, then using a Homing Stone to get back to the other side of the blockage. This was a big reason I put in the 'Restart Level' button, even though it is highly unlikely anybody will ever actually do this.

You, however, should be ok. The most you'll miss by leaving the initial room too quickly is a pool and a potion. Restart the level if it bothers you, but it won't make a huge difference.
