Unread RSS posts -- Counter on the app icon?

Not sure if this is feasible, but it would be nice if an "unread posts" count appeared on the icon -- in the same way that the unread number appears on the icons for texts or emails.

I had a user say

I have on of your apps for my iPod touch, I would love to see a little number pop up on the app when a new topic is added... Does that make sense? So I can see if there is something new at a glance, without opening up the app Thanks Barbara B.

Users would need a way to turn it off.....

An app badge for unread would be great.

No question.  Also local username / password support, in case the RSS feed is a premium or has premium elements.

This is a much needed and useful feature.

Signed up to this support forum just to ask about if you support alerts in any way so this would be great!

I'd have to support this idea. Other app development kits with RSS feeds support this sort of thing, such as the Taplynx API.
