I like this idea but I'm concerned about horizontal space in the sidebar and having the (# open, # hibernated) stat run off the right edge of the sidebar pane for many users. I'd like to come up with an intuitive abbreviated format like (# O, # H) though that particular example isn't terribly intuitive.

If you do want to implement this, the keyword "Window" is unnecessary because it is already highlighted Yellow and given space indicating its importance.


3 open, 4 inactive


would work just as well as


Window (7 pages)

I'm not sure this should be an "customizable option", however, so this is "do or do not".


EDIT:


How about this:


Window (3/7 pages)

It is obvious to a user that there is no such thing as 3/7th of a page, so they can infer what the numbers represent.


EDIT 2:


Sorry about the bad formatting.
