Description

{{formatnum}} in i18n messages does not work if a message is used in by JavaScript mw.msg().

It would be nice to have this implemented for JS messages. Otherwise, there's not necessarily a way for translators to know which messages are used in JS and they might use this, and the message shows an error.

Version: unspecified
Severity: normal

Please also report separate bugs for any JS messages you encounter not using localised numbers. Those can be fixed in a better way.

Behaviour is ideally equal to that as documented in http://www.mediawiki.org/wiki/Help:Magic_words#Formatting.
