This discussion is about the possibility of changing that in the future. The 
current change prevents us from implementing those for large images(even by 
simply reusing BandedSampleModel instead of new class), since it includes 
strict limits and the TCK will enforce them. So, if we decide to change it 
later, we’ll also need to update the specification, which means the change 
can’t be backported.

What things? I don’t think we have any limits, except that we still need to 
implement it. Right now, we don’t define that behavior clearly. So, later, the 
user will get the correct large image when they ask for it, instead of getting 
an error. But the current patch is one of the thing which will prevent that, no?
