Just a follow up on this thread and close it:

Starting with aroma.core v1.8.0 (2010-11-07) it is possible to specify
additional parameters when setting up the segmentation model,
parameters that will be passed to the actual segmentation method.  For
instance, (instead of having to pass them as arguments to fit(),  the
preferred way is now to do:

seg <- CbsModel(ds, min.width=5);
fit(seg);

This means that also:

seg <- CbsModel(ds, min.width=5);
ce <- ChromosomeExplorer(seg);
process(seg);

will also work (where fit() is called implicitly by process()).

Note that the aroma framework only pass on these optional arguments to
the underlying segmentation method.  In order to find out which they
are and what they do, see the specific segmentation method, e.g.
help("segment", package="DNAcopy").
