So we're going to run into some sort of fragmentation problem? Ever-growing transaction size coupled with already-to-small block size. I knew the scaling probl

  It doesn't really get worse over time. The amount of fragmentation is generally going to be proportional to the average transaction size. In general, expect transactions to have two outputs. The payment, and the extra. And since outputs become inputs, transactions will average about two inputs too. A few shavings might get orphaned here or there, but that doesn't have a huge effect on the operation of the rest of the coins.

    Ah, okay, I somehow thought that a transaction with multiple inputs creates at least the same number of outputs.
