I find it confusing that you can do `{% blocktrans with foo=bar %}` and
`{% blocktrans with foo=bar count n=baz %}`, but when you need only the
counter variable, the `with` has to go: `{% blocktrans count n=baz %}`.
The documentation doesn't clearly state how `with` and `count` work. As I
understand now after reading the code, they serve as a marker for the
following kwargs, where `with` accepts many kwargs, and `count` accepts
only one.
In my mental model, `with` and `count` are markers on a different level.
I'd find this syntax more intuitive:
{{{
{% blocktrans with a=foo b=bar %}
{% blocktrans with a=foo b=bar count n=baz %}
{% blocktrans with count n=baz %}
{% blocktrans with a=foo count n=baz b=bar %}
{% blocktrans with count n=baz a=foo b=bar %}
}}}
In all cases `n` is the only plural variable.
