The following appears to work - but it's filthy filthy code. I dont know 
how to call item-increment in perl. i tried $Tag->item_increment() but 
that didn't work (which isn't surprising since i just made it up). Can 
you point me towards a less horrid way of doing this?

[perl]return 
$Session->{carts}->{main}[[item-increment]-1]->{quickorder}[/perl]
