Limiting Supers

So, I was just curious how everyone limits supers in their Supers campaigns. I prefer to limit abilities to 20% of point total and power talents to 10% of point total. Cinematic advantages, cinematic skills, and gadgets count against the ability maximum while cinematic talents count against the power talent maximum. In addition, I have recently come around to the idea of completely banning the Cumulative modifier for advantageous Afflictions, as it makes it too easy for 500 CP characters to bootstrap their allies and dependents into gods (as well as themselves and other PCs).

What about you? What limits do you put on Supers in your campaigns? Do you think limits are required?
