Other areas like blenkernel and Cycles clamp the material indices to be positive so this should be consistent with them. There is still discussion if material indices should be made impossible, but this at least avoids crashing for the 3.5 release. There was also an inconsistency in how sculpt mode handles material index higher than the number of slots. Ref #105577
