Thanks for the feature request.  Py3.3 is a long ways away, so I'll leave this 
open for a while.

Comments in favor:
* Precedent with Smalltalk bags that know their total length

Comments against:
* sum(c.values()) is trivial to write
* fattening the API makes it harder to learn and remember

priority: normal -> low
