I've recently added an option to my Sieve implementation to limit the

We have a similar option.

any particular reason for adding this restriction?

I thought it might be useful to be able to advertise such limit in
ManageSieve, so that clever UI editors can do clever things. Thoughts?

Seems very reasonable to me. Just make sure it's clearly a limit on the
number
of redirect actions a script can perform during a single evaluation. There
should be no limit on the number of redirects a script can contain.

if it's a limit on the number of redirect actions a script can perform
during a single evaluation (and not a limit on the number of redirects
a script can contain), then what clever things would you expect a
clever editor to be able to do?
