One other suggestion -- I believe it should not be necessary to
support the "page._count.counter" format, because you can get
the data by using the container name.  Taking the "_count.counter"
example:

  crash> p ((struct page *)0xffffea0000000200)._count.counter
  $10 = 0
  crash> p ((struct page *)0xffffea0000000200)._count
  $11 = {
    counter = 0
  }
  crash>

So using "page._count" should suffice.

Thanks,
  Dave
