That's oversimplifying it a little, isn't it? I've seen it as a term for "beggar" but mostly as a term for any independent outcast. That definition makes more sense with how often it's used to refer to something that's "gone rogue," like a rogue agent or battalion or missile: it's strayed from its designated path and started doing its own thing, probably for the worse.
That's probably why D&D classified so many different castes as "rogue": the sort of person who would live a life of thievery would hardly be a humble conformist.
Meanwhile they go and do the opposite with spellcasters, making each synonym for "wizard" its own classification (though I'm not complaining).

I understand he's the substitute for the Barbarian, so there have to be written down advantages for his -1 AD and -1 BP.

Rogue has everything to do with deception, and not disarming traps. I hate D&D's third edition for spreading misuse of words like rogue and arcane.
