   I see you are very frustrated.  I insist I'm trying to listen to you (and 
others) Rob; sorry if I'm clumsy in doing so.  Your chief concern is 
supportability both today and in perpetuity forever and ever.  Mike & Nick 
voiced this concern too.  I'll put aside, at the moment, wether it's reasonable 
to have such a sacrosanct standard, as I don't agree with it across major 
releases.  Nevertheless, the PR shows 2048 dimensions works today; why would it 
not in the future?
   
   You seem to express you don't really like system properties (at least not 
for this any way) but that's not really a technical argument.  You expressed 
you'd rather users do other things, but that's not to say we should prevent 
this way.  You expressed the default codec isn't a place for leniency.  I 
contest that it's a technical argument, and it'd debatable what "leniency" 
means here.  Unlike the first iteration of this patch where you voiced your 
concerns, the version here shows 2048 is _supported_ (unlike billions, say).
