Repeat action / macro x times?
I'm looking for a way to repeat an action (including macro playback) x # of times.
It's a relatively common & very useful feature, but I can't seem to locate it in PhpStorm.
For example, in emacs, the keystroke is Ctrl+u X <action>, where X is the # of repeats, and <action> is another keystroke or macro execution.
Is something like this available? Thanks!

Bump, is there some way to do this?
can this be prioritized?
Here's a request to vote for: https://youtrack.jetbrains.com/issue/IDEA-155899/Repeat-a-macro-a-specific-of-times
This is a feature that I use frequently in Emacs. Sadly, not available in JetBrains IDEs.
In emacs it is possible to record a macro: (find string img=check, go to end of line, search back to ">, insert the text alt=checkmark, go to next line) and then repeat that macro until the find in the beginning failed. This made repeated edits much easier. In Jetbrains I would find all occurrences and then could set multiple cursors, but if the structure of the line is different this would fail. and I don't know how to set the multiple cursors without threading the mouse into each found string
