Couldn't you make the aggregate track the current row number as part of
its state?
While it's a bit annoying to have to do that, I don't see any other
solution that doesn't involve converting the aggregate into a
full-fledged window function, which you probably don't want to do.
(Even then, nodeWindowAgg.c doesn't seem to expose a function for
row number within frame, only row number within partition.)
