Your link doesn't say URIs are length-limited

I'm guessing you never hit this issue then, but it's a real issue. Whether or not it's in the RFC as a hard limit it doesn't matter, no HTTP server will allow unlimited sized URIs.

You simply can't base64 large payloads and you're stuck with workarounds.
