Are there any recorded cases of someone recovering stolen BTC?

  It's not possible in general. If someone steals your bitcoins, he can send them wherever they want. That's the "beauty" of bitcoin - if someone has the keys, he can do whatever he wants with it.

  as I understand it, the chances are very slim, but a solution might be to "ban" addresses with stolen coins from making transations... but there probably always will be a black market.

  I read at least one case where an exchange seized funds coming from hacking into a site.

    As far as I know, the exchange never released those funds.
