Any reason for this not being supported?

Comment From: badboy

It is in 3.0 → https://github.com/antirez/redis/commit/9e6155f4f87a5e256988153ba98c6b248fa6d8cd

Any chance of backporting this to 2.8?

Comment From: badboy

Unlikely. It was already merged into 3.0 against the new rule, see #2357. You should upgrade to 3.0 at the next best time (and an upgrade to 3.0 should be as safe as upgrading to a new 2.8 dot release)

I see.

2357 is talking about "maxmemory". What about other configuration settings that support units, such as "client-output-buffer-limit" ?

Not sure how it used to be, I guess it's mostly supported now (7.0). including "client-output-buffer-limit", like config set client-output-buffer-limit "replica 512k 0 0"
