I am writing code similar to CompilationUnit#findElements(), but not similar
enough to be able to directly call that method. 

I need to be able to re-locate an existing initializer or anonymous type inside
a new type or new method. IMethod contains a method getType(String name, int
occurrenceCount) and IType contains a method getInitializer(int
occurrenceCount). It is however not possible to retrieve the occurence count of
an existing initializer or a type with API methods.

I cannot use the parents' element type lists or initializer lists to relocate
the initializer or type, as those methods require the parent to exist.

So, the request is for a method "int getOccurrenceCount()" in IInitializer and
IType.
