What?

Allow integers (or just the first integer) occuring in train stop names to be parametrised in a blueprint, similar to how values of signals can be parametrised in combinators.

Why?

it would be nice if one can parametrise integers in train stop names, so one can label multiple copies of the same build by numbers.
For example, I would like to be able to use parametrisation to paste the 2 train stops in the image, plugging in the value 2 for the first, and 3 for the second.

Currently, the best one can do is to use the rich text symbols corresponding to the signals 0 to 9, like [virtual-signal=signal-2]. It still feels a bit weird however and is limited to only 10 integers.
