We can reserve a few numbers for internal use - say, 2**31-1024 to 2**31-1 (the maximum positive GFC_INTEGER_4). Attempts to open or otherwise use these should be an error, and inquire(exist) could return false, like negative numbers right now.
It might be a stupid suggestion (I don't have access to the code right now): why not use negative numbers?
