[oXygen-user] Feature request: report when sequence results are truncated

I was about to report this as a bug before I realized it is connected with a 
preference setting.

Running oXygen 13.0, with expanded Java memory settings, the following query 
returns a complete result:

element out {
for $i at $pos in 1 to 2000000
return <el>{$pos}</el>
}

but this query truncates after 600K results:

for $i at $pos in 1 to 2000000
return <el>{$pos}</el>

The truncation depends on the Preference setting for XQuery - "Size limit of 
Sequence view (MB)". That is understandable. However, it would be a help to the 
user if there was something more than just a "Transformation successful" 
message. For example, an error diagnostic saying "Memory limit 2 MB - results 
truncated", maybe with a link to the preference setting where you can increase 
the limit.
