I was thinking more along the lines of using a 31-bit dataspace (say) to map 
objects above the bar and use windowing services. Really "data-in-virtual" - 
forget the linear dataset.
Given we now have large page support, there is no need to limit the window to 
4k - if they were to get really creative you could use the entire dataspace as 
a 2G window for the big stuff.
Provide HLL APIs, and everyone is happy.

Seems too easy - must be a moth in there somewhere.
