How to adjust the temporary dimension text font size through Revit.ini file?

In the new build 20070810_1700 Web Update Enhancement List, there is a point mentioning: "When temporary dimension text too small to read, user can adjust the size of the font through Revit.ini"

Our Autodesk Support team is currently in the process of creating a Knowledge Base solution that explains how to modify the Revit.ini to adjust the size of the temporary dimensions. However, the following are the steps to do so:

1. Open Revit.ini file in Notepad. The file is typically located in C:\Program Files\Revit Structure 2008\Program.
2. Add the following line to Revit.ini in [Graphics] section:

   TempDimFontSizeInPoints=N

   Where N is a number larger than 8 (default hardcoded value). Good starting point is twice the default size (i.e. 16-17).
3. Save Revit.ini.
4. Restart Revit. If the size of temporary dimensions is still small, repeat from step 1 with larger number.

Please note, the [Graphics] section may not exist. If this is the case add a line that contains [Graphics].

Thanks

Are there other "default hardcoded values" that can be changed with .ini? A list I could get my hands on.
