Won't fix. That would lead to confusion when people compare what is blocked. With dynamic filtering, all the hit domains are now disclosed, even better than just a count.

For many users, one of the top reasons to use such an extension is for privacy purpose.
For such users, knowing how many distinct domains have been "hit" (through net requests reaching remote servers) for a given web page is a more important piece of information than the number of requests blocked.
If I go on site A and the badge display "1" distinct domains hit, I can see no 3rd-party server was hit.
If I go on site B and the badge display "20" distinct domains hit, this means no doubt privacy-wise it is not a good thing.
