I don't think the list exist. Almost all unimplemented properties require some 
kind of redesign of the code base, and that's exactly what we are working on.

The reason why i am asking is
because i am also planning to implement some
properties.

Everybody's invited, it's open source. Which properties are you talking about?

Sri,

There is a near complete complement of properties in Alt-Design.  Only 
some of the shorthands remain.  The application of properties to layout 
is another story.  Two approaches have been mooted.  1) Smart 
properties, in which the properties are contain the logic for applying 
them. 2) Dumb properties, in which the properties are, after parsing, 
simply a name/value pair, and it is up to the FOs, or whatever lays out 
the FOs, to apply those values.  Alt-Design takes the second view.
