[Python-ideas] Python execution progress counter

In x86 assembly there is a concept of instruction pointer (IP) that
indicates where a computer is in its program sequence (c)

I wonder if it is possible to implement a similar thing in Python? Not the
instruction pointer, which points to the linear memory address space (and
therefore is a 1D structure), but a 2D Execution Progress Counter, which
counts position in program sequence for every stack level?
