I want to keep my customization in my extension folder as it is supposed to do. Anyway, I don't know how to override workflow web script properties like start-wor

You can override any file that makes up a web script by copying that file into the appropriate extension folder and maintaining the same folder structure. You can then make changes to that file without touching the original that was shipped with Alfresco.

The appropriate extension folder depends on whether you are overriding a repository tier web script or a share tier web script. The root web script extension folder for the repository tier is:

$TOMCAT_HOME/webapps/alfresco/WEB-INF/classes/alfresco/extension/templates/webscripts

The root web script extension folder for the share tier is:

$TOMCAT_HOME/webapps/share/WEB-INF/classes/alfresco/web-extension/site-webscripts

If you are on 4.0 and it is the share properties you need to override there is an even better way, see http://blogs.alfresco.com/wp/ddraper/2011/08/03/customizing-alfresco-share-i18n-properties/
That way you can just override those properties you want to change.
