Bug Description
Even once bug #1214239 is fixed, 3 levels of nesting a 10000 stack-stack could produce 1 trillion resources. Even if template sizes are limited to 256kB, that will allow 2500 stacks per nested stack, so 15 billion+ nested stacks.
We should impose a limit on the numer of resources per top level stack. I think 10000 would be a reasonable number and allow extremely complicated stacks to be deployed.
