I agree that config parameters hardly can be not in ASCII but I cannot imagine them to be longer that 10-20 characters. It would be very hard to type such long settings without errors and my imagination is not enough to suggest a meaningful name of such length.
Not all people are that lazy in typing, recalling a request to increase our metadata names length up from 31 chars ;-)
But basically I agree. Our longest config setting has 30 chars in length and it looks cumbersome. So having some limit makes sense to ensure readability and thus I'm against raising it even more. Personally, I don't care whether this limit is 30 or 50 or 63. I don't see good reasons to have it bound to metadata names length, but on the other side -- why not.
And +1 for ASCII. Dmitry Firebird-Devel mailing list, web interface at https://lists.sourceforge.net/lists/listinfo/firebird-devel
