No, I've personally experienced that you need an explicit limit on some
systems. I don't know exactly why.
I don't recall having seen that, though maybe I've just forgotten. I'll
believe that you have seen it. I posit that those cases, whatever they
are, where you must have an explicit limit are outnumbered by the cases
where specifying an explicit limit will cause problems because it ends
up being to small at some point (probably long after the user has
forgotten about having specified it).
Thus, I think I'll "vote" for Rich Townnsend's position of unlimitted as
being "better", though I'd agree with qualifying it with "in most
situations".
