After how many cards do you crash?
This is indeed very weird, because I seem not to have any trouble 
cloning cards with groups of fields and buttons on them.
For example cloning 100 cards of the "revDocsLanguageReference" and 150 
cards of the "metatalk reference" stack to another stack poses no 
problem whatsoever. Only in rev it takes much longer (forever :-) than 
in metacard.

If you have time, try your handler on  the  "revDocsLanguageReference"  
stack and see if it crashes.
If it crashes on 100 cards there could be some offending code or I 
didn't clone enough cards to reach the bug :^)
