The limit on pages

The limit on page is not implemented yet.
The limit on pages won't be a a hard limit. It will notify users who attempt to create more requirements, that they are above the recommended limit. Of course, the administrator can raise the global limit (or lower it) to allow users to work without the warning.

This limit is a hard limit for Excel imports.
