If you had a smaller value, that will be because you edited some tweaks in the past (editing a tweak causes the default value of all tweaks to be copied into the custom tweaks file, so updates to tweak defaults do not change values for people that have edited tweaks).

Right, that was the value I found when I looked. But the current standard cover size for anyone publishing in places like Kindle and SW and Nook is 1400,2100
or larger which makes the default just a hair too small in the vertical dimension. (It's also just off from the 2x3 aspect ratio that is most common.)
I'm just suggesting that you increase the default height limit to at least 2100, so people trying to generate books to the required minimum don't keep having their covers downsized.
I'm not advocating huge cover images, but that's what the market is demanding. If anything, they're just going to get bigger, as higher and higher res screens come out.
