CCed Andrei who is currently working on multiboot improvements. The 16 character limit is also an issue for Solaris multiboot. What are you booting? Care to share your config? In general there is nothing stopping contributions that eliminate limitations such as these. There is a code size and memory footprint constraint on gPXE which can present a challenge. Sometimes this explains why the limitations exist. If you want to work on patches that would be great. Andrei: Any thoughts?
