This is possible, but XLSForm doesn't make it possible. We'll have to
work around it.
I've attached an example form that I think does what you'd like.
Ideally, you should have been able to use a repeat_count column with
the value ${participant_count}, but XLSForm doesn't allow it.
So instead, I've included a custom column in the XLSForm called
"body::jr:countx" with the value
"/nested_loop_count/session/participant_count".
In the XML that gets generated, you'll see this will appear at line 47 as
