Is there a way to specify a support's thickness?
What is the default width of the support wall when using rectangular or honeycomb supports and is there a way to make it thinner or thicker? Does changing from a .4mm to .25mm nozzle give me a thinner wall support?

RE: Is there a way to specify a support's thickness?
Support width is defined like any other extrusion width, in Print Settings>Advanced. You can define the extrusion widths for most extrusion feature types there. For a 0.4mm nozzle the prusa defaults for their printers is usually 0.35mm. This is thinner than normal extrusion width of 0.45 for a 0.4mm nozzle. Deliberately as it makes support easier to break apart and incidentally use less material. This width is applied to ALL support types - grid, snug and organic (if using 2.6 and you have organic).

Thanks for the explanation. So if I use a .25mm nozzle I can get thinnner supports...
