Comment (by birgire):

 [attachment:44000.2.diff] is a suggestion that uses the
 {{{wp_count_user_requests()}}} function approach in #44034. The patch
 there would need to be applied here as well to test.

 This counts the ''confirmed'' user requests for both export and erase, and
 add them together.

 It also checks for the {{{erase_others_personal_data}}} and
 {{{erase_others_personal_data}}} capabilities, before displaying the
 bubble count.

 So this approach can handle the case if user has e.g.
 {{{erase_others_personal_data}}} but not {{{erase_others_personal_data}}},
 so it would only display the bubble count for confirmed erase requests.

 Further adjustments would be to add bubble counts to the sub-menus.
