    [<JavaScript>]
    let WizardForm =
        let flow = Flowlet.Do {
            let rec loop(inp:Formlet<Sym>) : Formlet<Sym> = Flowlet.Do {
                let! i = inp
                let sk = stockInfo i.StockSymbol
                let! sv = sk |> OutputForm
                return! loop inp}
            return! loop InputForm
            }
        Div[H3[Text "F# Stocks Wizard"]] -< [flow.BuildForm()]

InputForm or OutputForm are blocking (i.e. the user has to do something in order for the form to trigger) you would have to click through the wizzard quite a bit before you'll see the stack overflow.

Some quick experiments in Chrome showed that it takes about 400 iterations, using text-box formlets as the inp parameter.
