fbcon is limited by boot sizes as at least with dynamic memory management and how fbdev works resizing the allocation is nearly impossible to do race free, since fbdev will hand out mmaps to userspace and that stops you from ever moving anything once the device is open. But this is only for the fbdev emulation, a real kms application should be able to use a larger size no problems.
