You've got some illegal syntax in %LoH->[$count]. But presuming I know what you meant, here's a nestable, localized-loop-counter-providing loop function that handles most of your wants, without* being too awkward: 
use strict;
use warnings;

sub counted_for (&@) {
  local our $LOOPCOUNT=-1;
  my $sub = shift;
  for (@_) {
    ++$LOOPCOUNT;
    $sub->();
  }
}

# Define a modestly complicated structure to loop through
my $LoH;
my $count = 3;
@{$LoH->[$count]}{'a'..'e'} = ();
my @y = ('X'..'Z');
counted_for {
  print "$LOOPCOUNT: $_\n";
  counted_for { print "  $LOOPCOUNT $_\n" } keys %{$LoH->[$count]};
} @y;

*arguably; because prototypes require that non-explicit subs be the first arg, I can't duplicate the for syntax, and of course I can't make a predicate form. Maybe it should be a map replacement instead.

Update: And of course last and next won't work with it.will give you warnings.
