--- Comment #3 from Doug Davis <dug@us.ibm.com>  2010-05-12 04:58:50 ---
To add to Tom's comment, after a discussion within the WG, the WG
believes that the number of potential items in the enumeration, while
interesting, isn't nearly as valuable as the total size of the 
enumeration (total byte count of the data, not just the # of items).
This would allow for better pre-allocation of resources than simply 
knowing the number of items. However, since calculating the total
size of the entire enumerated data set could be very expensive, the
cost of doing this at Enumerate() time didn't seem to be worth the
additional cost.
