When the autochanger/library contains more than about 24574 total elements
(slots+drives+mailslots),
mtx fails. This is probably due to running over its buffer. Could mtx be
enhanced to iteratively issue Read Element Status for some reasonable number of
elements, bumping up starting element number? Then there will be
no dependency on mtx' buffer size.
