Most underlying technologies would choke on this so it is probably a 
very good idea to let implementors declare their implementations maximum 
capacity and sub-scope it.  Consider that each message may also have to 
be stored in some form of persistent store too - this is an implementers 
nightmare if they had to have 3 trillion terrabytes available for this 
scenario.
