I sent myself a PM just to see if the notification at the top of the page changed to indicate that a new PM was waiting, and it didn't. I definitely agree; a new PM notification is far more important than a count of how many total PMs you have. Speaking of counts, I fear that having the postcount under everyone's avatar next to each of their posts may encourage garbage-posting for some just to up their count.
