That's not always true -- at some point, the mode-line become busy and
prone to problems with accidental clicks:  if you try to click on a
modeline widget, and miss by a character, it may be better that nothing
happens than something unwanted does; the more crowded with active
regions the modeline gets, the greater the chance for such mishaps.
