Count Rows in Doctrine QueryBuilder

Something like:

$qb = $entityManager->createQueryBuilder();
$qb->select('count(account.id)');
$qb->from('ZaysoCoreBundle:Account','account');

$count = $qb->getQuery()->getSingleScalarResult();

Some folks feel that expressions are somehow better than just using straight DQL. One even went so far as to edit a four year old answer. I rolled his edit back. Go figure.
