Hi David,
I don't know about any GeoServer specific limitations on this, but it's worth bearing in mind that HTTP itself has got some limits you may hit. If the request is sent via the GET method, you'll be limited to about 2000 characters by the web browsers/client. You'll almost certainly hit this with 100-200 things in your CQL.

If the request is sent via the POST method, the limit *should* be much much higher. As in megabytes; this is something that you could potentially configure in Jetty/Tomcat. See also: http://stackoverflow.com/questions/266322/is-there-a-limit-to-the-length-of-a-get-request

Maybe someone else can answer the GeoServer/WFS specific part.
Cheers,
Jonathan

I use CQL for creating subsets of Geoserver layers in Google Earth, but am also thinking about showing small numbers of points by programmatically creating an 'IN' list in a CQL filter - maybe 100 or 200 choices in the 'IN' list.

Is this an undesirable thing to do?

How long (in characters or number of criteria) could a CQL filter be?
