Which Software works like that? I don't know of any! For example: I 
print a 10 page document in InDesign. Then I realize there's a type on 
page 7. I fix it, and print page 7 to 7. And *of course* I want it to 
say 'page 7 from 10'.

your feature request doesn't belong into the application layer at all 
IMHO, i.e. neither InDesign nor TextMate nor any other app should have 
such a feature. You need something at the OS level along the lines of 
adding header info to printed pages.

My $0.02,
