Me too.

Well, instead of a prefix argument, I think it would be better to use
the process mark.  I.e. if there is no process args, use the previous
article.  If there is _a_ process marks, use that article as a parent.
If there is multiple process marks, signal an error.

Counting lines is something you do in vi, not Emacs.
