   > I tend to agree with @carterkozak. According to my experience, these kind 
of measures have the potential to shadow the underlying problem. If the 
configuration has something dumb, let it blow, so that people can see and fix 
it.

   > OTOH, what if somebody tomorrow comes up with a code path that circumvents 
the _"recursion is only allowed for configurations"_ condition? I guess 
everybody who down voted this PR will get crucified. 🤷‍♂️
   
   This PR is better than knowing about a runaway train and letting it crash in
