Is this limitation really a problem for some of your code? I thought it  
was still big enough, with room to spare. I don't recall ever having a  
string of over 1_073_741_824 characters. Also, for a 64-bit program, the  
limit is raised considerably, to thousands of terabytes (and  
string.MAX_LENGTH will reflect this automatically).
