Comment (by emirpprime):

 Interesting - #21431 looks like it was a performance fix for the
 underlying function, but I stand by this being a not-insignificant UX
 issue and this patch a step forward.

 That said I actually think my patch doesn't go far enough - to be
 informative and deliver the implied/expected data on the users screen I
 believe the count should really include all posts from a user (including
 draft, private, and custom statuses) except inherit, auto-draft and trash
 (that might be simplified as all except trash and those marked as internal
 - but I'd have to check). It could be filterable so that plugins can
 exclude statuses as required (eg some concept of a custom trash status
 relevant only to that plugin).
 However that's a much bigger change that would definitely need some bigger
 voices in the discussion to decide whether it is worth persueing.
