Proposed: new registers .it, .itc, .itm

This time I come with a patch.

I propose to implement the following new read-only registers.

.it     Interpolates the number of lines remaining in the input trap.
.itc    Interpolates 1 if the input trap respects \c, 0 otherwise.
.itm    Interpolates the name of the macro bound to the input trap.

The above data are reported in `pev` output but there is no way to
expose this information to a *roff document.  The foregoing new
registers would do so.

Any objections to this extension?

Regards,
Branden
