The reasoning behind the exclusion of the total count is that the DSL query is optimized to look at a smaller sub-graph (as small as possible), if the total count has to be returned then we would have to start looking at a bigger (potentially the complete graph) graph. As far as I can tell, there's no better way of doing it as of now.
