Yeah, as mentioned, I don't think it's a full solution, but will be
useful in limited circumstances. It's free anyway since it requires
no change to the language.

Yes, that's a good use case.
I found that Django does this with {% plural %}

(In addition to having the |pluralize filter/formatter)
What templating system are you using now, and how do you express this?
