Please be careful on this one.  Don't tie to closely to 802.1q, which  
is broken having only a 12-bit field (4096) for VLANs.  It's extremely  
likely that a successor to this or a replacement technology will be  
used to identify VLAN uniqueness.

Bottom line: whatever you use, make sure it's larger than a 12-bit  
field.
