Maybe so. But then again I may not understand the problem. It could
easily be designed so that if it says {(counter)} it just checks the
current value and {(counter+)} increments it. That way you could put
one in the conditional and the other in the template, or some
combination. In which case I would only count pages that are actually
rendered, while blank pages would not trigger it. I presume that's the
problem with using $$pagecount in the first place.
