Well, this is a little crazy but inexplicable limitations can make one  
crazy.

How about vertically slicing images greater than 4000 pixels, then  
throwing the resulting sub-images into a group?

For example, you have a 12000 x 2000 JPEG.
Using imagedata, you turn it into three 4000 x 2000 images.
Distribute them horizontally so they abut.
Then group them.
Treat the group like an image.
Put all relevant code, like mouseclick stuff, into the group's script.

Crazy.
