:-)
It's actually a closely related issue...instead of a hard-coded limit, 
like the 256 blend items limit, you specify the limit yourself. I don't 
know how it would be done without breaking old scenes, though...maybe 
ignoring the count if there is one, or by using the #version number...

BTW, I have finished coding the unlimited blend map patch...I just need 
to test it now. I made a few other modifications to the code, just 
cleaning up the internals and separating the blend map code out of 
colors.c and colors.h(what was it doing in there?!?), they shouldn't 
affect the syntax...
