I think I have repeatedly used nested pagelists but haven't encountered
any problems so far.

For example, I have a page group in which coworkers can enter their
tasks (one page per task) and another group in which projects can be
created (one page per project). Now tasks can be assigned to projects by
simply mentioning the exact project title somewhere in the task
description (no extra page variables, link or category markup required).

In order to display all corresponding projects to a task in the task's
group footer, I use two nested pagelist templates: The first one
iterates through all projects in the wiki and invokes the second
template with each project's title as a parameter. The second template
searches for said project title in the current task description and
creates a link to the corresponding project page only if the search is
successful.

Seems to work fine so far. Is there any downside to be expected from
this solution?
