Display a window that says:

"Management has determined that this database shall not exceed 
XXXmb.  If your business function requires more disk space - take 
it up with your manager."

Limiting database size is not a problem for developers, unless 
they are unable/unwilling to explain to their management that 
disks are a whole lot less expensive than terminating a database  
application that depends them.

But then, M$ never takes any responsibility for the amount of 
disk space it wastes.....
