Regarding the stack allocation, I was just suggesting a user-level policy of where to place stacks within the processes address space. Just for clarity and debugging, it would be nice to have a convention, for example: all stack live in the area 0x40000000 to 0x80000000, each having a maxumum size of 0x100000.

This sounds like an issue for the threading library and nothing that needs to be exposed formally. FWIW, the traditional default stack size has been 8 MB.
