The customer would like to increase the max web content entries per page to higher than 200 as it is the maximum at the moment according to https://docs.liferay.com/portal/7.2-latest/propertiesdoc/portal.properties.html the search.container.page.delta.values portal propertie.

The 200 value is hardcoded by the MAX_DELTA variable:
https://github.com/liferay/liferay-portal/blob/master/portal-kernel/src/com/liferay/portal/kernel/dao/search/SearchContainer.java#L69

public static final int MAX_DELTA = 200;

The customer is asking for a property that can make the MAX_DELTA configurable "search.container.page.max.delta" where it allows to set the maximum entry limit as required by the user.

11/05/2021 Update:

This was implemented in the LPS-130743, see the description of that ticket:

A new property is defined in portal-ext.properties to set the absolute maximum allowed delta value.
The new property is

search.container.page.max.delta

This new property works together with search.container.page.default.delta property in the following way:

• search.container.page.max.delta default value is 200.
• search.container.page.default.delta default value remains in 20.
  Default values apply when either property is not defined or property is defined with a value <= 0
• If search.container.page.max.delta > search.container.page.default.delta then delta = search.container.page.default.delta
• If search.container.page.max.delta < search.container.page.default.delta then delta = search.container.page.max.delta
