Idea Delivered Partially

Clarification - the implementation noted in XPP 9.4, using the Perl function: $X->get_reg("#foo[:[-]level]")

does not cover the specific use case of accessing the named number register from the frill back to the main text. 

Would it be helpful to get a number register (we would assume "level 0"), via its name?

Access Named Number Registers (counters) from a frill block

In order to make named number registers as useful as normal number registers we need the possibility to read out the content of a named number registers from the frills (or other) stream.
We would need both a macro (equivalent of the mr macro) and a xyPerl function (the equivalent of the $X->get_main_numreg() function)
