Is this really necessary? I once had an application that would have used around 30 values in one multi-valued property (project details to be stored on an invoice page - which can cover multiple projects) - I didn't go for multi-valued properties though, since it's impossible to get the data out again in a useful way (which has been brought up a lot of times on these lists, by me and many others). I'm using Semantic Internal Objects now, but as Yaron pointed out, there are issues with it, that would require changes in SMW. I really hope that your recent code changes will finally make it possible to have "bundles of values that belong together" stored in a property (or an internal object, or whatever other thing), and that it's possible to get them out again in a useful way - not introduce new limitations to that feature, that is really necessary as soon as you do something non-trivial with SMW. If there must be a fixed limit, couldn't it be something like 2^14 - like Excel's maximum amount of columns (iirc)?
