This seems like a good candidate: Stephen Lack, "A 2-categories companion" http://arxiv.org/abs/math/0702535 (73 pages) There's also Kelly and Street's excellent "Review of the elements of 2-categories" (1974), but doubtless you know about that, and I guess it's not as comprehensive as what you're envisaging.
