I would suggest *VERY STRONGLY* that you reconsider this.
SNMP an international standard protocol - it has been designed
such that tools from a variety of different vendors are able to
work together.
   Breaking one particular set of tools to accomodate a private
extension undermines this interoperability.  It's like designing a
web-site that can only be viewed from one particular web browser.

I would suggest that you review the design of your MIB table,
and consider an alternative form of indexing, that falls within
the 128-octet limitation.
