No. The 'key' field does not store offsets or any data related to
pattern sizes. (Indeed, it is not even part of patterns, but of trees.)
This "unsigned short" limits only the number of Lua constants you can
have in your pattern (e.g., you cannot have more than 64K function
captures in a pattern).

I hope so.
