When are we going to be able to follow more people than the current Friends List cap allows?

This is more of a question for "US2" (assuming this means Turbulent), but Jared's going to chase it up and see if he can find an answer, which he would then pass on to Tyler Witkin who can post it on Spectrum at a later time. For reference, the Friends List seems to be capped at 250 right now, which might just be an arbitrary limit.
