The Loop Controller should indeed provide it's value in a variable.  Great idea and 
by far the easiest way to do it.  Any JMeter component can implement the 
"org.apache.jmeter.testelement.ThreadListener" interface, and if you do, you get 
access to a "JMeterVariables" object, in which variables and their values can be 
stored.

There is also a handy "org.apache.jmeter.testelement.VariablesCollecttion" helper 
class which makes all of this pretty easy.  I think you would find it pretty easy to 
do 
this for yourself, Scott, and it would make a nice little patch.  You can find 
examples of how to use the VariablesCollection class in 
"org.apache.jmeter.modifiers.CounterConfig".
