Certainly a full-size preview would be quite useful.  Like you, I
find that I usually Stroke several times trying to find the right
brush size (I usually stroke with the paintbrush tool, for its
antialiasing).

It wouldn't have to require an extra click: make the dialog offer
a "Preview" button as well as OK. People who are sure they have
the right settings can click OK, everyone else can use Preview first.

Your other suggestions sound reasonable, but I seldom change the
line style so they're not burning issues to me.
