That's interesting to know.
Translators are the forgotten few. And, as an English-speaker, I am too 
ignorant of the translation process.

But I was thinking more about the plurals. If the UI supplied mins/hrs 
as numbers then the theme could template "%n min(s)" but not
"%n hour(s), %n minute(s)". Concatenating strings in a theme is difficult.

Given that the existing formats will remain, then adding window 
attributes for the raw numbers would cover all eventualities.
