Limit max users in ejabberd MUC

Question

As I can see in xep-0045 there is option to limit max users in room:

<field
      var='muc#roomconfig_maxusers'
      type='list-single'
      label='Maximum Number of Room Occupants'/>

I'm using Smack lib for Java to create rooms. And I send form during creation process like this:

[...]
List<String> list = new ArrayList<String>();
list.add("3");
submitForm.setAnswer("muc#roomconfig_maxusers", list);
[...]
muc.sendConfigurationForm(submitForm);

And it doesn't work. In one room I can see 4 ppl, for exmple, but server shouldn't accepted 4th invite, right?

Other options (muc#roomconfig_persistentroom, muc#roomconfig_membersonly, etc.) work fine. There is the problem only with muc#roomconfig_maxusers.

I'm using last version of ejabberd.

How can I limit max users in MUC?

1) It isn't possible to set custom value for this option. You can check sources. Possible values are: [5, 10, 20, 30, 50, 100, 200, 500, 1000, 2000, 5000].

2) Admins doesn't count. So, if you have 5 ppl in room (1 of them admin), 1 man still can join this room.
