- Subject: string.format() and %Ns with N>99

string.format() doesn't support '%s' string widths larger than 99.
Is there a specific reason for this limit? If not, perhaps it could be
relaxed to say 512 (see MAX_ITEM in lstrlib.c).
At any rate, shouldn't this limit be mentioned in passing in the
documentation for string.format()?
