Displaying a simple count instead of a whole list

                 URL: https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/JSPWIKI-100
             Project: JSPWiki
          Issue Type: New Feature
          Components: Plugins
            Reporter: Christophe Dupriez


ReferringPages, RecentChanges and other plugins are displaying (sometime long) 
lists of pages. On the other side, one may want users to consult those lists 
regularly. The best way may be to put links in the main page of a Wiki which 
brings the users to those lists and to put a COUNT nearby the link so the user 
see that there are new entries.

Example:
Let suppose you use [Category Discussion] in some pages of your site.
You make a CategoryDiscussion page containing:

!!!Pages under peer scrutiny:
[{INSERT ReferringPagesPlugin exclude='Main,leftmenu,LeftMenu,Category*'}]

You want to show "Category Discussion: nnn pages" on your main page (nnn being 
the number of pages containing [Category Discussion]. 

 By the way, apart from the simple count, the latest modification date of the 
pages in the list would also be a very nice information. It would then be 
possible to display:
[Category Discussion] nnn pages, last modified 2007/12/13 14:56
