This is correct in so far as with the help of "backgroundnames" and
"backgroundIDs" only those primary (i.e. unnested) backgrounds will be
listed whose backgroundbehavior is set to true.
However "the number of backgrounds" does not distinguish between
backgrounds with true or false backgroundbehavior.
And - if you wish to list *all* existing backgrounds - nested or not,
placed on a card or unplaced, backgroundbehavior true or not - you can
script this using a counter variable.
