Incremental Token Counter

One feature that would be helpful is, when pasting down multiple copies of a token, to have it increment a counter in the label. For example, I have an encounter with five fire beetles. I've got my token all set up and I want to just plop down four more copies of it. It would be great if the label on the token had a placeholder that incremented by one for each one I drop. So the first would be "Beetle 1" and when I paste a copy of it, it would be "Beetle 2" and so on. Nothing earth-shattering, just a time saver so I don't have to go in and edit the name on each one. So perhaps I could set the name to "Beetle [inc]" The firs one would then automatically be "Beetle 1" and others would increment.
