I have tested that theory... putting barrels in chests, in differnt barrels, in more types of chests... i nested them as deep as i dared.... i even tested lockpicking them while they are nested, and i couldnt break it.....
And in this attempt to find possible CTD or hangup, i did accidentally have linked items in there too.... (i discovered this when my teleported stone appeared in a dungeon barrel), i did take the teleporter out of the dungeon barrel, thinking i struck gold with a 3rd stone (too much coffee does that to you).... only to get back to my stash and discover it empty and now all in my inventory....
It didnt crash or even give a hickup....
