Seriously doubt it

If it NEEDS more that 512K chip ram, that leaves little (<512) for everybody
else.  Since 1M chip is a godsend to everyone, this is doubtful.

Thanks to the smart design of the ROM routines, i would think that any code
that couldn't fit in the ROMS could be moved to disk-based libraries. 
(except boot stuff, of course)  True, a workbench disk could get pretty crowded
but there's no reason an A1000 couldn't run 1.4 because of a WCS limit.
