Man, we can't keep any secrets. :-)

Until today, there was hope that we could eliminate that limit in 7.0,
which goes to beta on Feb 1. However, the group has decided to not
included that in 7.0 because the job is larger than anticipated. It
will certainly be in 7.1. We realize many people need that
functionality, and we clearly have a plan to implement it. In fact,
coding has already begun on it.
