Aligns one object to an other, quite a few hits if you search align on scriptspot.

(As for a Max standard feature, could not tell)

Something that may work for your needs:

 

Extrude the spline some non-zero amount.

Select the Object to rotate.

Tools: Normal Align.

Select a face on the Object.

Select a face on the Extrusion.

Delete Extrude from the spline's modifier stack.

yes. just turn on Angle Snap Toggle. I think it defaults to 5 degrees.
