I'm 99% sure it is no longer limited. Notch and Co. added some code so that it can dynamically increase the height in an area allowing for taller builds.

- javert 13y ago"the top face of the highest block that can be placed is at Y-coordinate 256." -http://minecraft.gamepedia.com/Altitude http://minecraft.gamepedia.com/Altitude I'm pretty sure what you're thinking about did happen: the height limit used to be 128 and when Notch added some code, it made for a (relatively) big improvement to 256.
- asdfs 13y agoI believe they changed it so that the height limit now depends on a single variable in the code, making it easy to build a copy of Minecraft with a different limit. Minecraft as distributed by Mojang still has a 256-block height limit, however.
