Batch load into layers with a pre-defined number of images

Question

I'm working with large sets of bracketed photos where I am selecting 3 images from each set that I want to be loaded into photoshop layers (not photomerge/HDR). I would like to be able to automate the process so that I could select a batch and have every 3 photos in sequence layered into one document.
So I would select, say, 90 images in bridge and run a batch process which, when finished, would leave me with 30 documents in photoshop each consisting of 3 layers.

I'm capable of working with scripts, but not competent enough to make one from scratch.

Also you would most likely need some Bridge Script to add a menu item to Bridges tool menu there a Bridge Scripting forum for that Bridge Scripting

The Bridge Menu Item and the Photoshop Script would be very similar to the what was needed to implement Load Files into a stack. Your would be like Load 3 Files into stacks. The may also be some limit on how may document Photoshop can have open together.

Like Load Files Into stack would be limited toe 8,000 file for Photoshop Has a 8,000 layer limit. I would think the limit of how many documents can be open would be much lower than 8,000.

When I Programmed my Photo collage Toolkit I based my Template design around framing images using Alpha channels. I did not know what Photoshop Document Alpha Channel limit was. I had to limit my Templates Design to a maximum of 53 Images, when I found out Photoshop Alpha Channel limit is 53.... Alpha Channels make Photoshop framming images easy.

X may know he did Contact Sheet II which create contact sheets that are left open in Photoshop.
