Err, you need to take into account the bounds of the database fields holding lat and lon. Last time I checked (API 0.6 backed by MySQL), the lat/lon fields were 4-byte-long integers, and the API multiplied the lat/lon by 10 million to store the data. That means that the DB bounds for lat/lon are -2147483648 to 2147483647, which translates to ~ ±214.74 degrees. In order to map something outside those bounds, you would have to tweak both the API and the DB backend to make room for bigger numbers. I haven't looked at it, but it's sane to assume that the API checks for out-of-bounds data.
