Suggestion: New special variable for pipeline enumeration index

A while back I posted a suggestion on to MS Connect regarding the
possible addition of a special variable to numerically signify how far
through an iteration of input items a pipeline current is.

Has any thought been given to implementing this?


In summary I'm lobbying for the addition a new variable (such as $%),
similar to $_, that will would be an integer value holding a count of
the number of items that a pipeline has processed.

It would be really useful to have such a simple means of determining
how far though a pipeline you are.
