Illustrator shows paths with extremely many points incorrect, without showing a warning to user
Sometimes EPS files I want to open in Illustrator contain paths with many many points. When opening in Illustrator no warning is shown, but polygons are not shown correctly as the fill color is disappeared (and the polygon path seems to be broken/not closed anymore). Is the limit 32.000 points? If so: please enlarge this amount OR show a warning when opening a file: now users cannot trust your Illustrator here.

The limit is somewhere between 40,000 and 50,000 points. I've tried to render a polygon of circle with various numbers of points and the polygon was fine with 40,000 points.
The bad thing is that the polygon is not only incorrectly rendered, but also broken when saved to a file.
