Actually, in Group Extended Contests, that rule is already there...
p.133, Going Before Your Turn.
Basically, spend 5AP or more and you get to be the next Actor. If
anyone else wants to go before you, they must bid at least 3AP more
than you. Doesn't help 1-on-1 Extended Contests, unless you care to
make it do so...

140AP, yes, but I don't know of any maximum bid, no. Each could bid 3AP, and total 30AP... in fact, I'd say that was more realistic! Ability remains at 14 though.
