Details:
as noted by celmin, codes like:
stding.format(_("Yout got %n, but you need %n"), n_items, max_items)
are not really translation friendly since it can happen that the 2 numbers
appear in a different order in the translated string.
To fix this issue we need a different function like
newfunction(_("Yout got %items, but you need %items_needed"), {items =
n_items, items_needed = max_items})
that doesn't identify the inserted strings by their index.
Ideally such function would also return a lua tstring userdata if one of it's
parameters was a tstring.
