Beanstalker can get stuck waiting for an environment that never arrives

[marstonstudio]

I've had a number of cases where the beanstalk environment initially starts to build, but fails within the first minute or so of launching. This happens 1/5 of the deploys. I've seen the environment appear in the aws console and then disappear with an error message shown on the log for 1/2 second. I'm trying to get a screenshot of to help debug root cause.

But, it would be helpful if the beanstalker plugin was able to determine that an environment failed to launch and will never arrive. At the moment it gets stuck and keeps polling for status on an environment that doesn't exist.

root cause of why the environment was failing to launch was due to reaching an amazon resource limit for number of cloud formation stacks. Fixed by requesting a limit increase here:

Fixed my problem, but would be nice if beanstalker was robust to this issue.
