Comment:

 Hi @espellcaste

 I'm very dubitative about the interest of mixing notices count with
 messages count. I think these are 2 different objects. BTW, that's why I
 moved notices publishing into the WP Admin screen since 3.0 (it's a
 community administrator only tool). IMHO, It should be a feature living
 outside of the Messages component (in core or in a Notice component).

 There might be a limited interest to get the unread notice count, so why
 not introducing `bp_get_total_unread_notices_count()`. So far, the feature
 only loads one notice at a time. So you get the `n+1` notice once you've
 marked the `n` one as read.
