Comment(by abelcheung):

 In my plugin's case, it converts shortcode enclosed content into images,
 but the process is resource hungry and time consuming, so I want to limit
 number of instances of shortcode parsed, and print others as vanilla text.
 That's the primary reason of this patch.

 Do you mean using a static counter to record number of shortcode instances
 already parsed?
