(api) using pointer as a counter

[loziniak]

Is it possible to use Pointer as a pure counter? I don't need to point at anything, but pointer target is not optional.

You can put what you like in the target (it's just [u8; 32]) or use the built in counter if you just want to increment it.

The problem is I cannot put nothing there :-)

Then put something, just dummy bytes. It's a pointer so you have to provide a target, but it doesn't have to point at anything.
