First off depending on which TB glue you are using will depend on what
color the clue will dry. TBIII dries quite dark all by itself. TB
White SlowSet dries clear.
Next wood darkens when it is wet with water or oil. Your glue will
darken the dust. If you don't want the spot to darken leave the dust
out and use a white glue.
If you are trying to fill a gap, use wood filler that is made for that
purpose.

Perhaps... but keep in mind homemade wood putty made with glue won't
take stain.
Depending on the glue, it make not take paint very well, either.
