Hi all,
thanks to the Ed's patch in bug 394516 we have now few strings with
correct plural forms. But unfortunately there are more of them :(

In cs locale, we are using a workaround for these strings and instead of
"%s items" we use "several items", or we just have these strings wrong.
It would be nice if we can use this new plural forms feature and have
these strings correct.

I searched for some of them and added them to the general plural forms
bug - https://bugzilla.mozilla.org/show_bug.cgi?id=177097#c16

Sadly, we're string frozen. I'm not convinced that we should break the
string freeze for this.

Yes, it's not perfect, but it's not a regression per se, and didn't
block previous releases. For those cases where we have to break the
string freeze anyway, I'm happy to have them use the new stuff, but I'm
not sure that it's a good idea to start new bugs now.
