As there are still some unfilled gaps in hardware implementation in dosbox

Which?

Hi wd,
For example,

1case 0x0c:
2		// Video configuration
3		// TODO: Figure out if there is anything worth implementing here.
4		pvga1a.PR2 = val;
5		break;

If I have a paradise BIOS, is it a good idea to fill the gap as well?
Thanks

Of course Dosbox doesn't emulate every video card and their dog. Why should it? What does this paradise card add?

Of course you CAN implement that if you're bored but you're way better off putting some
logging into that function and playing some games, checking if something actually writes
data there.
For svga/vesa you may especially try playing with univbe/sdd loaded, or the respective
vga/svga bios.

1Also, would DOS (although illegal) source code help implement certain aspects of dosbox as well? 

Many millions of people own completely legal copies of DOS that can be disassembled during execution (they don't even contain a EULA prohibiting that). So there's no need to contemplate breaking a law here.

Copying DOS source code would be illegal, but DosBox doesn't do that.

I'd guess they actually have some terms about reverse engineering in there,
but never checked since you only need to "emulate effects".
