Description
Having a way to provide a counter for an enum to use would be great for one use case I have right now, which involves defining a custom numbered list, but it would also enable resuming the counting of one enum from another, like when you "suspend" the list with some text in between items.
Replicating this idea on other numbered entities would also easen customization, like defining separate numbering on front matter / main matter / back matter, or continuous numbering for Theorems, Lemmas, etc.
