Description:
mysqlbinlog already has an --offset to skip a number of events. I'd like a --count to limit the number of events output.

How to repeat:
N/A

Suggested fix:
Often when trying to solve a problem related to replication or binary logs, I need to see the events starting at some position along with the next few events. I can use --stop-position and just guess at a value large enough, but that's not very precise.

Changing the category since this is a replication utility.
