@urlsangel added maxDepth in 529cd77 but I later removed it when I realised it is kinda hard to explain what it does and I don't think it's particularly helpful.

Do we need it or will it be solved by #5 ?

FWIW it doesn't limit URI path depth but distance from the initial page

Came to the issue queue to look for this specific feature request.
Would maintainers re-consider this feature?

Limiting distance from initial page is exactly what i need.
FWIW, "level" or "depth" is the same terminology used by e.g. wget to specify the same.

Sure. It should be trivial to add it back in. I'll re-open the ticket and try to fit it in. PRs welcome!
