well, one has to think, how much more time and money will actually be spent adding a 4th LED to the controller? it's almost nothing if you think about it. just a slight redesign so the opening is still centered, and so that everything fits (which basically means moving it over a few cm, and opening up over the 4th digit). then, they might require some more code to let the controller recognize 4 digit numbers, but i assume that's easy to do (all it is is interpreting binary).
all in all, mocing onto 4 digits won't be amazingly hard. besides, i think they've been waiting for this day for a *long* time. 1000+ team numbers means that FIRST has started it's own culture, and it can only grow from here.
