So you got the answer rather quickly and the answer is:
"Yes, in the worst case it can consume a lot of stack. Don't use this
simple and elegant algorithm unless you have full control both on size
of the images and on size of the stack and on size of the stack frame
generates by compiler for each recursive call."

ye, may conclusion would here be rather
put stack to 100 or even 150 MB and forget... then worry if the code
(of recolorisation) work too slow
(i know howewer this is potential bug af is someone would want then recolorise of very big area there still would be stack overflow, but this is unlikely)
