I'm not sure if this change is philosophically correct as far as the
tunables framework is concerned.  I had thought the limits should be
something static, so that they are consistent across systems.

Maybe Siddhesh can comment on that aspect?

What is supposed to happen if you specify an out-of-range value?

Thanks,
Florian
