Uh? The data model supports it fine as far as I can see.
Yes, virtually all the tools don't, because it isn't a problem so far (and is 
harder...).  But they could be improved in the future and the data model would 
be fine.  Or am I missing something?

Consider a way from 0°, -189.999° to 0°, 180°. that is, in our current datamodel, a way that's roughly 40,000 km long.
