The chances of the maximum TCP window size growing beyond current limits, while 
non-zero, is likely small - perhaps even only a couple multiples of epsilon. 
And besides, if the TCP folks decide to up that limit, I suspect there will be 
the better part of a year's advance warning before anything finalized in the IETF.
