Sure.  I have a photo album app that can display up to 1000 photos in 
an album (though there are other limits that prevent that many being 
shown at once, but that's a problem for another post...).  Each photo 
thumbnail is displayed inside a group that can have up to 3 checkboxes, 
3 buttons and 10 editable fields for a total of 16 controls per photo.  
Easily 16,000 controls or more on the page at once.  And I'd rather not 
have the 1,000 limit which is arbitrary.
