Custom Set slot order, maximum characters...

Can you allow the slot order to have more than 5 characters in it for the custom sets?

 

I'm building a custom Type Set here:

http://coins.www.collectors-society.com/WCM/CoinCustomSetGallery.aspx?s=8829

 

It's a first year of issue type set that I'd like to present in chronological order, so I'd like to use the minted year for the slot order, followed by a 3 digit decimal for the denomination, to keep them in chronological order without having to renumber every slot every time I add a new coin.

 

So for instance, right now the 1964 Kennedy half is in the first slot, but its slot order number is "1964", not "1". Which is fine. But when I get to a year where more than one new issue was released (such as 2010), the maximum 5 characters won't let me put in 2010.001 for the cent, 2010.025 for the quarter, etc.

 

I'd really love it if we could have 8 characters, which would allow me to go up to 2010.100 for any dollar coin designs. This way, I would never have to renumber a slot when adding a new coin in the future, as my numbering system would automatically sort it out beautifully. =)

 

Thanks in advance.
