1) lots, but large dirs are slow to process, so nobody goes there. Think of a path name for a complex object, now in place of 30k of them in one dir, look for separations and put slashes in there, and voila, smaller directories.
2) limited only by path length. Welcome to recursion. Lots of JAVA guys go nuts under windows' 255 char limit. UNIX is usually 1024 but I believe you can compile a more generous number into your kernel.
Each directory is an inode, just like a file but marked for directory handling. Think of it as a big dumb list of entry name and inode #, nothing else. Things like pipes and devices are a lot more 'special'.
Lots of O/S have just directory and flat file. Soft and hard links are not always there. Devices live somewhere outside the file tree, and if you want pipe behavior, you have to program.

ABRT.CONF(5) ABRT Manual ABRT.CONF(5)
NAME
abrt.conf - Configuration file for abrt.
DESCRIPTION
abrt is a daemon that watches for application crashes. When a crash occurs, it collects the problem data and takes action according to its
configuration. This document describes abrt's configuration file.
The configuration file consists of items in the format "Option = Value". A description of each item follows:
DumpLocation = directory
The directory where should abrt store coredumps and all files which are needed for reporting. The default is /var/tmp/abrt.
MaxCrashReportsSize = number
The maximum disk space (specified in megabytes) that abrt will use for all the crash dumps. Specify a value here to ensure that the
crash dumps will not fill all available storage space. The default is 1000.
WatchCrashdumpArchiveDir = directory
The daemon will watch this directory and call abrt-handle-upload on files which appear there. This is used to auto-unpack crashdump
tarballs uploaded via ftp, scp, etc. The directory must exist and be writable for abrt. There is no default.
DeleteUploaded = yes/no
The daemon will delete an uploaded crashdump archive after an atempt to unpack it. An archive will be delete whether unpacking finishes
successfully or not. The default value is no.
