I think that the value of CRPL in the config keyfile should correspond
to the maximum CRPL value that the node supports. If an application
specifies anything greater than config value, it will be capped.

As far as changing the value of CRPL dynamically (i.e., in app's
properties), we may allow it, but *only* if the new CRPL value is
greater than the previously specified one (again, subject to be capped
at max).

I would strongly prefer not to allow changing CID. Is there a good
reason to change CID ever?
Changing product ID and especially version ID ahould be fine.
