Thanks for such a quick reply!
A text field is unfortunetly not an option.
We could possibly divide it by logical group using 3 or 4 drop down list,
but we cant have more then one drop down list associated with the same
field.
It would really make our lives easier to have the limit removed for our
installation.

yes - there is a hardcoded limit as we were running into usability options
with massive chromosome menu drop downs for some species. The best thing we
always found was to change these filters to be simple textfield ones. 
Would this be an option for you? Otherwise I can try and help you up the
hardcoded limit to get all your 500 odd entries
