Now, if I want to reduce or enlarge KeyCancellation.X-extent, knowing that default is (0.0 . 5.866662)*** gives me critical information that I can actually use as a reference point; without that information, the trial-and-error factor increases dramatically.

Well, we have the \offset-function ...
No clue about possible limitations, though

Oh, it would be great if we could use \offset for such cases. Unfortunately it doesn’t work here…

\offset only works on properties that have a default value listed in the grob pages in the IR (derived from the alist in scm/define-grobs.scm).  There is no default value listed for KeyCancellation.X-extent, hence the warning.
