Thank you for your code :-) Your example shows this feature can become a
built-in.

You are right, thank you. At the moment it's a size_t, that is an unsigned CPU
word. (I have recently asked in bugzilla for all those values to become signed
words, because unsigned are too much unsafe in a language that doesn't catch
signed-unsigned conversions and has no integral overflows tests).
