Yeah, but I did add a comment to explain my dodginess.

This patch is actually my third iteration.
1st iteration simply copied the update code to an instance version. But
I didn't like the duplication of the code, as one could be modified
without the other.
My 2nd iteration did exactly what you did below. Have the code iterate
through the entities and pass a function to process them. Half way
through doing this, I realized that it was a huge hammer for such a
small nail. When I saw that it was just one little function, and adding
a counter would be trivial, I thought the third way (my patch) was
actually the simplest solution. Yes, a bit icky, but still the
simplest. I don't foresee any other functions being added to iterate
over this, thus I picked the simplest solution.
I think this is a bit too much overkill for the solution of the problem.
