Although I understand the problem (I speak Ukrainian, and it has some
fancy pluralization as well), I don't think handling all forms of
pluralization is within the scope of our Web framework. The only
reason the "pluralize" filter exists is for an 80% case -- the 80% of
words in the English language that can be pluralized by adding "s"
(or, thanks to the recent improvements to the filter, a configurable
suffix).

I'd encourage you to create and distribute your own language-specific
pluralization template tags/filters, but they're out of the scope of
the framework.
