   Surely, this will not override an upper limit set by the server

Indeed.  In order to be really useful each limit should have -two- values
specified in the .ini file: A maximum limit and a default limit.  Queries
that don't specify a limit get the default limit.  Queries that do specify
a limit get the smaller of the maximum limit and the requested limit.
(Similar to the Unix `rlimit' facility where they are sometimes called
"hard" and "soft" limits.)
