In the last LilyPond Report , the comparison of Breitkopf and the "airy" Lilypond outpout, according to Janek, is something that I agree 100% for quite a long time.
What I would like to do is, as a 1st step, to raise the beam thickness up to #.55~59.

Of course, you changed the context to \Score

Can't confirm. All grace-notes _are_ affected, but in a different
degree. I added
(Voice Beam length-fraction 1.5) to make this effect more visible:

\version "2.15.38"

music = \relative c' {
       \grace { d,16 [des] } c8 d e f
}
\score {
       <<
       \new Staff { \clef "G_8" \music}
       \new TabStaff {
               \tabFullNotation
               \revert TabVoice.Flag #'transparent
               \music
       }
       >>
       \layout {
               \context {
                       \Score
                       graceSettings = #`((Voice Stem length-fraction .5)
                                          (Voice TabNoteHead font-size -4)
                                          (Voice Beam length-fraction 1.5)
                                          (Voice Beam beam-thickness 0.5))
               }
        }
}

In graceSettings (Voice Beam beam-thickness 0.5) overrides other
alterations of beam-thickness (using an override in the file or
changing the value in define-grobs.scm), but only for grace-notes.

BTW, what do you intend at all?
