MAX_WRITE_CACHES tunable?

Hi guys,

I'm wondering what the reasoning is/was behind setting a hard limit of
the number of write caches to 10 (see source/include/local.h)?  One of
our customers has an app that may benefit from write caching, but (of
course) it opens 11 files.

Could this safely be made an smb.conf tunable (like max open files, for
example)?
