Love to hear from Jason, but, my take would be 2^16 should be enough for anyone. I think long before people hit that limit, they would merely aggregate arguments into classes and structures. I think in another 20-80 years, we might want to bump it back up to 32 bits, but... I think we can safely wait until we get a compelling bug report for it.
