I like the flexibility of the `index()` and `count()` concept, especially if a selector could be passed in. A few possibilities that would be great to see: * `count(children)` for the number of child elements (akin to `count(“> *”)`) * `count(“.media”)` for counting the children matching a selector * `count(siblings)` for getting parent’s element count minus 1. * `index(siblings)` for getting the element’s index relative to its siblings * `index(n)` for getting the n value in :nth-child loops for more advanced selecting Imagine using `count()` to help you determine the number of `grid-columns`! I realize not all of those would be feasible or possible initially, but having open ended functions could allow their expansion in the future.
