I'm afraid that might not be possible due to I'm quite sure
many people wouldn't like the change of the max name length.
I also think there might be issues with NFS too.
I have not yet though circulated the idea you originally suggested
or the entier project idea fully although good numbner of people in
ON consolidation know about it...

the length for the existing (traditional) file systems.
So does this mean that we may expect a change in
usr/src/uts/common/fs/{dnlc.c lookup.c pathname.c} soon?
What's about NFS? Is there a problem with extending MAXNAMELEN?
