I see that you explicitly set default values for some of these
parameters, e.g.:

+def convert_BoxFeatures(document):
+    " adds new box features "
+
+    i = 0
+    while True:
+        i = find_token(document.body, "height_special", i)
+        if i == -1:
+            return
+        document.body.insert(i + 1, 'thickness "0.4pt"\nseparation
"3pt"\nshadowsize "4pt"\n')
+        i = i + 1

Shouldn't there be some way of just leaving this empty, so that it goes
to whatever the default setting is?

The logic is that there is always a line thickness if the box has a line. It would be confusing not to have a thickness because no thickness means no line. So it cannot be left empty. I therefore set the LaTeX's default values as default.

What is wrong with this in your opinion?
