"# of Times Used" Indicator for Macro Toolbar

Description: The ability to toggle a checkbox in the Settings window > Macro section that would add a counter to Macro buttons in the Macro Toolbar recording how many times a macro button has been sent to Chat. Something as simple as adding a small red number that tallies would help Players keep track of their use of powers. A way to clear the counters would also be required so that after combat or a scenario, the macro would be reset to clear. Usecase: Campaigns running settings that require tracking of power uses or build ups to linked powers.
This would cover so many different situations, or just be a cool statistic for players to see.
I'd like it just for a cool statistic. It be also useful for GM's to see if certain powers are OP/UP.
This would be very helpful for powers that have limited uses like D&D 4th edition, or some abilities from earlier editions of D&D (X/day) or other systems. Additionally it would be really cool to have a "total used" as well as "used since last reset", sort of like the two odometers in a car, so you can see how popular one of the powers is compared to the others as well since that would be a pretty cool metric.
