The resettable counter is in Amber, not ComOS. Which is what it is not
accessable on the command line.

A second counter is a bell and whistle which is not actually widely
requested - just a few vocal people on the list. As has been said,
everything eats FLASH and there are more important things to do in ComOS
at the moment.

That would just annoy people, we don't add features when tactics like
this are used. Personally I'd filter anyone who did this to /dev/null.

There is an open RFE on it.
