+\begin{key}{/tikz/dash expand off}
+ Makes the |off| part of a dash pattern expandable such that it can stretch.
+ This only works when there is a single |on| and a single |off| field and
+ requires the |decorations| library. Right now this option has to be
+ specified on the path where it is supposed to take effect after the |dash
+ pattern| option because the dash pattern has to be known at the point where
+ it is applied.

As for the line thickness, some predefined styles allow you to set the dashing
conveniently.
