There isn't a number in the corner of the Discard pile to let someone know how many cards are in it. It would be helpful for cards like Counting House, Counselor, and probably a few more I can't think of at the moment.

This could be nice indeed, but the Dominion rules say you're not allowed to count your discard pile (unless some card tells you to look through it).

Maybe we should do something though, because IRL obviously even even when you're not allowed to count you can get a pretty good guess by just looking at it.

IIRC, I thought the number of discards in your discard pile shouldn't be forbidden, just looking through your discard pile itself?

Started a 2 player game and after the first turn my opponent left, saying he was just there to see what it looked like.  Game was still running with only me at the table, so I resigned as I didn't see any other option.  Scoreboard at the end showed simply 3 pts each and me resigning, nothing about the other player ditching.  Is that how it's supposed to work?

Yes, it is. Sorry but it's impossible for the system to know if your opponent left on purpose or by accident.
If it's by accident, he gets some time to reconnect.

You could have waited 5 minutes and then you would have gotten the option to resign your opponent.

Yo dude

It's 2017

We shouldn't have to wait 5 minutes for someone to reconnect

Battlenet didn't even give that much time for Starcraft in the 90s

Can you please join us in the future? Make it one minute.

These appear to be different things... disconnect is when your internet connection gets a "hiccup".

Quitting is when a player deliberately chooses "Quit" from the menu screen.

For the former, if it doesn't reconnect you automatically, then 5 minutes seems to be the right amount of time to have to reload the app and click through a bunch of options.
