I'm all for the addition of the get_objects_count() function, but I would also like to see the feature of seeing how many times classes (or a (set of) specific class(es)) has been instantiated and not only the current existing number of instances. This is a bit more work than the current scope since a global counter needs to be added, but I think this can be a very useful piece of information and is a feature that is very close to the one proposed here. This could be achieved in an entirely different function, or in the same one, provided that we add an argument (boolean or bitmask options flag). Before voting, I'd like to hear others' opinions about this since it might impact the current design.
