This would be an absolute limit, so having it configurable makes no sense. If somebody sets it down, there node would be very broken indeed since it would be unable to pass DataReply's that other nodes expected it to.
The absolute limit for the length of data has to be one of the things that define being a Freenet node, so that nodes that don't have the same limit as others can simply be considered broken.
