Okay, this is just an idea ... Why not support a real database then to store 
the data (read the first * below before you react)?  

 * JDBC api is simple and I don't think it'd be hard to add as an /option/ to 
the node.
 * The database would still need to be "maintained" (as far as size, etc) as 
it does now.
 * Lets you split up the node and the datastore onto different machines, if 
traffic becomes that much of a problem, or you want to use another machine's 
disk.
 * Have to maintain the database server, but as only advanced users would use 
it, that shouldn't be too much of a problem.

You can tear it apart or ignore it now :)
