if you already introduce a new line, wouldn't it make sense to also show the current item position something like:
1 - 20 / 60 items

Language string would be something like this:

JLIB_HTML_PAGINATION_ITEMS="%1$d - %2$d / %3$d items"

[brianteeman]

That was not part of the feature request

[HLeithner]

You are right I created an alternative implementation #43575

[brianteeman]

Note that both this implementation and the alternative are not completely correct when it comes to accessibility. The information should really be in the caption element

[Quy]

Needs to handle when there is only one item.

[brianteeman]

Closing this in favour of #43575
