No Qt limit, in this moment the NoData maximum value is wrong (255).

It's an issue due to a workaround added before applying the patch
at #2376. Now I can remove it (better if I add a test to keep GdalTools
compatible with old QGis versions).

We want to add this feature ASAP, but it could require some time.

Fixed both issues from r14074.
