Tom,
I am very strongly in favor of this idea. I would personally prefer it if
the Join collapsing parmeter could be set at query time through a SET
statement, but will of course defer to the difficulty level in doing so.

How about:
EXPLICIT_JOIN_MINIMUM
and
FROM_COLLAPSE_LIMIT
Just to make the two params not sound so identical?
