Putting a thumbnail within an image caption like: [[Image:Mk Berlin Tram 6.jpg|thumb|500px|asdf[[Image:Mk Berlin Tram 6.jpg|thumb|250px|asdf]]]] works perfectly, but any deeper nesting than that will break, for example: [[Image:Mk Berlin Tram 6.jpg|thumb|500px|asdf[[Image:Mk Berlin Tram 6.jpg|thumb|250px|asdf[[Image:Mk Berlin Tram 6.jpg|thumb|125px|asdf]]]]]] Does not work as expected. See the URL for a testcase.
Just a wild guess, but I think it works for 2 levels because the parser scans for image links where the description contains a link (which should be the only place where links in links are allowed). And by chance this second link may also be an image inclusion instead of a wiki link. I don't see any necessity for nested links/images with more links. Do you have any real use case in mind or did you "just notice" it? I strongly vote for INVALID.

Putting a link in the second thumb image description render the whole expression unparsed: [[Image:Info.jpg|200px|thumb|Bla foo is : [[Image:Info.jpg|100px|thumb|oh[[Accueil]] ]] ]] Note [[Accueil]] link at the end. Are users really supposed to put a thumb as a thumb description anyway ? :)
I don't really see why this is needed anyway. I'm with Mike on this one. It looks terribly ugly and probably would create more trouble that it fixes. A second image now won't go into the caption of the first image at all.
