Although there are bugs in DBpedia, this is not one of them. :) I think it is important to make this distinction between DBpedia and the SPARQL endpoints serving its contents exactly to point out that you could provide your own implementation/wrapper that sorts/limits results the way you want.

Yes, this was imprecise. I was not talking about the SPARQL endpoint (which in fact is able to return more than 2001 triples per subject). I was talking about the standard thing that many people do with a http URI: dereference it.

I agree that other / local SPARQL endpoints are useful for mass queries and to take load of the DBpedia servers, but i don't see how they help in my case, as dereferencing still goes to the server(s) at dbpedia.org.
