I've obtained a little more information from a conversation on Twitter
with Xiang Li, a CoreOS developer, see below.

Xiang says that to support non-x86-64 architectures, they would need
someone to take responsibility for maintaining them.

I still don't know whether this is a blocker.

Xiang says that there's a 1 MB limit on transactions by default, which
can be increased.  This is probably not a blocker.

Xiang says that etcd can handle at least a million notify registrations.
This is probably not a blocker.
