I think those extra knobs can come later.  If we are not going to
limit with max_options in the end, however, wouldn't it be more
natural for the initial iteration without any configuration not to
have hard-coded max_options at all?

As to the "SQUASH???" compilation fix, I can squash it to the one
immediately below it locally; I didn't do so in today's pushout, as
it was still unclear if you are already working on a reroll (in
which case anything I would do would be a wasted effort).
