Hey Adobe Ae Team, could you add a number counter fx please.

I just recently discovered the burst pop function and love it. Making those was a pain in the butt prior to this. Now it's easy. 

Which got me thinking, adding a scrolling number counter is the same kind of pain. Is there any way to add a function that makes it as easy as you made the burst pop? Just basically a text box that can be formatted the same way as a cell in Excel. Right now you have to add a bunch of code to add commas, get rid of decimals, add a dollar sign, etc. I create math and accounting animations so this would be really really useful. Please????!!!!
