HP has been doing that for years (decades?) for parallel SCSI
in "High Availability Configuration Guides". It lays out exactly
what is and isn't supported. I'm sure other vendors have similar
restrictions. As long as the product is still reasonably useful
and the vendor provides a solid assurance it will work, such
configuration restrictions are quite acceptable.

I'm NOT arguing "8 iSCSI connections max" is reasonable or enough.
I just arguing some sort of limit is acceptable.
