Despite the misleading name, jquery.localize is MediaWiki-specific.  It
has a hard-dependency on mw.msg.  Since it uses msg rather than message,
I believe means it always uses .text() (the default format of mw.msg),
but it should pick up jqueryMsg if present.

See

I like the idea of jquery.localize, but I haven't used it in practice.
