I only reviewed the patch quickly - haven't tested it yet though.
So as preset parameters are already possible, how about implementing a 
preset-selector? Wouldn't be hard to do I think by using a userFunc 
(probably with hook) to fill the dropdown.

As I only had a quick look at the patch, are the defaultWidth/height 
settings of type stdWrap? If not, it'll be cool to add stdWrap 
properties there, to be able to check for a registered variable etc. You 
could also put the parsed pi_felxform vars to the register and apply 
them to stdWrap enhanced configuration settings. That way you could 
override some defaults based on the rendering location of the website 
(main content, sidebar, multicolumn content etc).

Again - just some ideas/suggestions. I think we better move further 
discussion to 4.3 list as Martin suggested.
