 todo: need to figure out how to determine what the OS limits are, or
 handle obscure cases gracefully. see:
 http://ubuntuforums.org/showthread.php?t=1173541
 for example of obscure case.

 the majority of operating systems have a 255 character filename limit:
 http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Filename

 the fix could assume a limitation of 255 and raise a warning and discard
 the result if open() fails with these assumptions.
