I appreciate your intent on not exhausting the available space, but at some point if that happens is there any reasonable way to expand? I'm sure you have some thoughts, or is this "it" as far as features could go (the last available bits)?

I haven't given it a lot of thought, but I'm sure there are ways we
could expand the bitmap if/when it is needed.  I'm also sure it would
be ugly; it almost always is a pain.

My hope is that we've changed the API before then so it is a non-issue.
