As soon as the compartment parameter name hits the 32 byte limit, weird things can happen on REAPER side. Caused by this issue: RustAudio/vst-rs#196

User reported an error message which was a symptom of this bug: Message: REAPER string should be UTF-8 encoded: IntoStringError { inner: "<TRACK\nNAME \" ...

So the track chunk suddenly contained random garbage characters that were not UTF-8 encoded. Luckily, otherwise the error would not have been discovered.
