Please do not.
limited is like the flu : a record containing a limited field must be
limited itself.
For example, you can not extend a Gtk.Window.Gtk_Window_Type with an
extension containing a limited type, or else the root of these types must
be limited (and I don't own it).

limited should be used only when the type is really limited (when using
accesses, tasks, etc).
