Hm, I had figured "100 is plenty". But maybe not.

Yes, and yes IMHO. Even better would be to detect loops directly and
eliminate this kluge entirely, but I'm not sure if you want to get into
that ... whereas a GUC parameter is pretty trivial. Don't forget the
documentation updates (which you will find is a bigger patch than the
actual code change).
