On the proposed "Sharded Transaction Limit"

The sharded fork is a good idea for improving a blockchain system's N traction limits, where N is the amount of transactions but could benefit from having a sharded transaction size limit for each sharded fork.  By setting a maximum transaction amount per sharded for SiNamount <= amountmax i where i is each sharded fork.  

This allows for scaling the security of transactions in terms of nodes verifying each transaction for the amount of coins transacted per block.  

An example:

Shard 1 can verify amounts up to 100 coins per block and has x proving nodes

Shard 2 can verify amounts up to 200 coins per block and has 2x proving nodes

Shard N can verify amounts up to N*100 coints per block and has Nx proving nodes
