Erlang supervisors can define a maximum number of restarts over a period, after which the supervisor will shutdown. This avoids repeated, if not infinite, crash loops.

I added the bug label because the current Supervisor will enter an infinite busy loop when an actor fails to start, or suddenly starts crashing, when it should fail gracefully.
