It would be awesome if all APIs have a “remaining\_count” or “total\_count” response json key next to the “next\_page\_token” one…

that way… it would be very informative for users… like for example: not continuing if count is too large, this will save a lot of resources both sides. or for example doing different kinds of processing depending on size
