I've not yet gotten to tear apart the spec and experiment with that.  I
may add it as an option.

6 pixels is just hte default.  Override it with the 'line_width'
suboption.

I don't see the number "40" or the word "opacity" in kml.c.  Are you
referring to the line colour?   The alpha on that is already 100.

That doesn't sound too practical in a general-purpose conversion tool.

I don't fully understand this request, but our track splitter (also
fairly new) may help if you want to break your tracks into smaller
segements.
